All other X-applications that I use *don't* show the same error when
started the same way as xdos. Furthermore, IMO, if it was an X security
issue, even root could not start the application.
However, judging from your mail, that it�s not an obvious bug or
feature, I tried several changes to my X security settings. I found, that
xdos works after executing �xhost localhost� (well, I could�ve checked
that earlier, but I was confused because all other applications had
no problems).
This is really strange: For kernels 2.0.x the Xauthority mechanism works,
but it doesn�t for 2.1.y. Can you see a reason?
I have another, completely unrelated, question (although it may not be
a good idea that I don't send a separate mail to the list). AFAIK, fdos
is included with dosemu, isn't it (so this is not Linux distribution
dependent question).
1) When I get the welcome message from autoexec.bat, it has about 20 or 30
chars of garbage at the end. I can repeat it by calling autoexec.bat,
although �echo "..."� doesn�t show this problem.
2) I use the "normal" config.sys (device=c:\emufs.sys / and
device=c:\ems.sys). But d:\ doesn�t show the Linux root, instead there
is random garbage or (sometimes) nothing besides the headline and a
"File not found" message.
Are this known fdos or dosemu bugs? Is there a way to solve them?
Thank you in advance for answers, and thank you for the fine work
on dosemu (there are sooo many enhancements since I first used it
as version 0.63.z).
Greetings,
Ulf
