My problem is that almost all of the msdos utils that I use (share.exe, doskey.com etc.) will causeDOSEMU to fail without any messages. Have anyone experienced this? Dosemu doesn't even give a error message. Another problem is that when I use opendos or msdos 5, share will cause my bbs program (Telegard) to experience file access errors when it goes to load in the data files for the BBS. It keeps on saying cannot read archive.dat mode 64, error 5 (something close to that). Any help would be appreciated.

I would like to port it over to Linux, and as I lost the sources a few years ago (hard drive crash and no backups ... heh!), I will have to do it based on its "look & feel" (and my fading memories). Anyway, I haven't booted into Win95 for several weeks, and I'm not about to start now. I thought maybe 'dosemu' could do the trick. I've got 'dosemu-0.98.1-2' installed (came included with RH 5.2), and tried it out with a Win95 floppy image. I couldn't believe it when I saw my DOS application running under Linux. Kewl! :-) Only thing is, it was considered a "clever" thing to do back in those days to write directly to the hardware in order to speed up display access. So I wrote and used my own display API. Trouble is, under dosemu various items are displayed all over the place, rendering the application almost useless. I guess, in retrospect, that practice was pretty idiotic. :-( I've tried a variety of different settings to try to clear this up, but so far I haven't had any luck. Cheers... P.S. Pointers to newer binary RPM's of dosemu, if they would help solve this problem, would be greatly appreciated. - --------------< LINUX: The choice of a GNU generation. >-------------- Steve Frampton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://qlink.queensu.ca/~3srf ------------------------------ From: Francesco Lamonica <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 03 Feb 1999 03:12:05 +0100 (CET) Subject: dosemu 0.98.5 compile problem Hi, i tried to compile dosemu 0.98.5 under linux slackware 3.5 (kernel 2.0.36) and egcs 2.90 (1.0.3) but it failed. the problem was an unrecognize -fno-gcse option that configure introducec to keep away egcs compilation bugs (at least it was said so in Changelog file) what should i do? thanks --------------------------------------------------------------- | Francesco Lamonica | E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Student of | E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Information Engineering | | | University of Pisa | Web: http://pharma.unime.it/~franci | |-------------------------| | | LINUX | PGP: Finger the mail addresses | | the choice for a GNU | | | generation | ICQ UIN: 20095811 | --------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: "Rene Dudfield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tue, 02 Feb 1999 19:00:29 PST Subject: Multi user dosemu. Hello all :) I'm trying to get a multi-user dos program to run on a linux box, to be accessable vi win NT and 95 machines. I have dosemu working, and everything seems fine on the console. The programs work via telnet on my NT machine but the font is messed up. The problems that I have had are the following... 1. Performance problems... When running dos progs, each one constantly chews up the processor. Even when the dos program seems to be in a idle state. I know that dos programs *choke* weren't written for multi user systems so I was wondering if anyone has a quick solution? Is there some way that I can get the dos program to stop using up as much processor when there is no user interaction? I noticed when dosemu drops to a prompt the cpu usage drop right down again. This would not be the best solution, because the user could be doing a database search or some other 'required' cpu intensive task. Anyone have any ideas? 2. Lack of the vga font for windows... I want to be able to use the dos font, that I use on the linux console, in the windows telnet program I have(telnet win32 http://www.musc.edu/~brannanp/telnet/). Is there somewhere I can get the font for windows? Or a way to convert the font? Do you think that this is the reason for the different font? 3. A keymap for a pc. Anyone use the same telnet program?

The default keymap for linux (see the telnet.ini file) work with most of the keys. The problem I have with this telnet seems to persist with any other telnet in running dosemu. As an example, I can't find a way for dosemu (running under telnet) to diferentiate betwwen the '+' key in the normal keyboard, with the '+' key in the keypad. But as far as I know, this is really a problem of dosemu when running under telnet. In console works ok (with rawkeyboard on), and in X (xdos) also works well. So, I don't know if it is posssible to solve this with a keymap, but if anyone solves this problem with a keymap I would like to get my hands in that keymap. regards, - -- Mario Moreira DID/CET Portugal Telecom +351 34 8913200 ------------------------------ From: Matt Valites <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 04 Feb 1999 00:42:35 +0000 Subject: Dos com programs. I have a major problem with dosemu that i cannot resolve for all my efforts. I've held off posting it because i didn't think anyone here would be able to help, but here it I go anyway: In an attempt to run a dos implementation of zmodem under dosemu with either fossil or direct com access (this is an option in the software having nothing to do with dosemu), i have major problems at "high" speeds. The problems seem to start when buffers fill up. The modem seems to be dropping CTS (the CS light goes out) yet the SD (send data) light continues to be on for a fraction of a second. The remote end almost immediately reports a CRC error, then the process starts again. If i were to do the transfer inside bash via sz the SD light follows the CS light.. I did make one change to the serial startup code in dosemu, i removed the function that toggled DTR upon startup (to keep the modem connection alive). I didn't think this would be a problem but i wanted to make sure i mentioned it.

Debian's "open" program or my "own-tty" program <URL:http://www.pobox.com/~kragen/sw/> will allow you to run something on a particular VC from cron, /etc/rc, or whatever. I haven't tried it with dosemu, but I imagine it should work.

Yeah, I figured as much, and ran it in the console, and also adjusted dosemu to hog the CPU.

How to resolve this error ? Many thanks.

DOSEMU itself provides DPMI services, so you don't need to load CWSDPMI; in fact you can't, as you discovered yourself. RHIDE, gcc and all the other DJGPP programs should work as is, without CWSDPMI, as long as DPMI support is enabled in DOSEMU (there are caveats; see the documentation).

The server (OS/2) communicates with its 30 clients (DOS) over a novell network via the netbios interface. I tried to run the dos-client under dosemu with "ipx_interface add -p eth0 ehterII" and loading netbios under dosemu. This works in principal, but is about 50(!) times slower than under clean dos. I would like to try the PDETHER-way, but I couldn't find it anywhere on ftp servers. Does anybody know about a location? The other way would be to find the cause, which is responsible for the real slow access over netbios. This seems to be more elegant, since the pure file access is done via the nwclient from caldera or ncpfs and works fine. Any hints for me? Thanks.

When i use lredir , like lredir g: linuxs\fs\tmp I get the message Error f0be redirecting drive G to LINUX/FS/TMP. I can`t find out what is wrong. I have ipx support on in dosemu.conf and added a primary interface to my ethernet card. When I start netx dosemu finds and attaches to the novell server, but then I don`t get my prompt back and dosemu hangs. Can you help me ? Thanks in advance Maurice Mahieu ------------------------------ From: Nathan Reeves <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 11 Feb 99 17:47:00 PST Subject: RE: error lredir and netx Maurice I think your problem is related to the fact that you need to put the line: LASTDRIVE=Z in your config.sys. I had the same problem a while back and the solution posted by all respondants was to put the lastdrive line in and it worked perfectly after that. With your requirement to access to your Novell server, a better way to connect may be using ncpfs. If you are trying to acheive a multi-user DOS system that access's a novell server then ncpfs will do the trick, as it allows more than one user to see the files on the novell side. If you try and use the lsl, pdpipx, netx method of connecting you will only get one user connected at a time. When a second user connects it hangs the first user's session. If however you are trying to get SPX comms then the way you are doing it is the more appropriate way. Hope this helps.

If so, lredir doesn't work yet with Freedos, you have to use an other dos (MS-, Novell-, DR- DOS).
