Hello, While indulging a wave of nostalgia for DOS-based games, I was suddenly overwhelmed by the urge to play UFO: Enemy Unknown (aka X-Com: UFO Defense). I checked out all the UFO-related software that's being developed (UFO2000, UFO: Alien Invasion, etc) but found them all to be lacking. I needed to play the original. So, I found a copy of the game. But of course, I needed to find a way to get it to work on linux.
Enter dosemu. This program is great! Quick download, quick make/install, and I'm up and running. I fire up UFO and lo, the intro sequence comes up, with sound! Wonderful! Here's where I run into trouble. After the intro sequence, the console starts spewing out the following error message, at a rate that significantly slows down the game. ERROR: PIC: pic_ilevel=0xd pic_isr=0x0 and occasionally ERROR: PIC0: ilevel=20 != pic_ilevel=d, pic_isr=0 Aside from the slowdown, this doesn't seem to affect gameplay or the emulator at all. I've played the game for about 10 minutes, but the slowdown from the emulator spitting out these error messages as fast as it can is just too annoying. Does anyone know what I can do to fix the error? If not, is there a flag to suppress the output from dosemu?
