Here's what I get after unpacking and running the 1.1.99.1 binary:
--- [EMAIL PROTECTED] dosemu]$ ./xdosemu ./xdosemu: line 1: readlink: command not found ./xdosemu: line 285: cd: /../Xfonts: No such file or directory You do not have the DOSEMU vga font installed and are running remote X. You need to install the vga font on your _local_ Xserver. Look at the readme for details. For now we start with an fixed font, which does not display all national characters correctly. ... be warned ./xdosemu: line 375: /../bin/dosemu.bin: No such file or directory ./xdosemu: line 375: exec: /../bin/dosemu.bin: cannot execute: No such file or directory --- But there is definitely a ../bin/dosemu.bin there. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
