Hi Kai, if I remember correctly, there is a problem with 16 colours and graphics in X. Could you try 256 colours in X?

Could you try 256 colours in X? Hi Reinhard, yes, you remember correctly. With 256 colors it works. Thank you... Does it mean, there is no way to use 16 colors? In this program I can use 256 colors: So no problem now, but I have another program, where I can't choose 256 colors.

Hallo Kai, as far as I know, there are some programs that work and many that don't. I was told, that there are many different ways to implement 16 colours, and not all of them are implemented in dosemu. Greetings Reinhard ------------------------------ From: "Yanko Sheiretov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Fri, 03 Sep 1999 11:15:12 PDT Subject: Re: Modem under Dosemu It seems like dosemu does not handle specifying irq2 or 9 for a com port. Some software runs, others do not. The only way I could get things to work is by giving up one of the com ports, and setting up com1, irq4 to use /dev/ttyS2. This was the only way to get my software to deal. So, i have 2 instead of 3 com ports and I have to change the software's configuration depending on whether I'm running it under dosemu, where I use com1, or real dos with com3. This is the best I could do. I suspect this is a real bug. I played some with the global conf file, where there is more freedom on the addresses and irqs to use with the coms, but I could not get it to work properly. I hope this helps.

DJGPP works generally Ok under DOSEMU for me (I'm using 0.99.13). However I'm using it mostly under Win95. Thing I don't like is absence of support of LFN on drives accessed using LREDIR. I think it could be rather difficult when DOSEMU have full access to partition, but it could be possible easier when LREDIR is being used (Linux understands LFN on VFAT partition, so I think all we need is LFN API under DOSEMU similary as we have in Wincrap9X) Andris ------------------------------ From: Free Consocium <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 8 Sep 1999 07:17:42 -0400 Subject:

First, I would like to know if this is some mailing list, because I am not on it, and won't get answers if you don't cc your replies to me in that case. Second, I have been testing Dosemu for a while, and it comes that I cannot use it when I have booted with the framebuffer activated. When I enter the dos emulator, magically the resolution is switched to text mode, and all looks again like dos. The problem is that exiting the emulator doesn't restore the framebuffer device/resolution/whatever, and even typing blindly fbset resolution doesn't help. It's just luck that I could run shutdown blindly and didn't have unsaved work in any other terminal. My question is if this is known, is going to be solved, is being worked out... whatever. I would like to use dosemu, but since I will be using the framebuffer too, I will be restricted to dos only when I boot without framebuffer, and for that matter, I could boot directly in to pure dos, right?

Both computers are running linux. X-windows, I suppose. For DOS based terminal, there are programs - I wrote keyboard code converter, someone write terminal emulator which handles keycode conversion for DosEmu... for Linux, I don't know how to write keycode conversion working on Linux - a program, which gets every keypress, including Alt-Ctrl-Shift make/break, and writes converted to telnet, first I don't know how to read keycodes on Linux, second I don't know how to make telnet thinking it gets data from terminal (otherwise it does not work, at least with DosEmu on second side).

I would suggest: - - use muLinux (fd based distro, can be installed on hard drive) - - two partitions: 1 swap, 1 data - - size of swap according to RAM, RAM+swap should be around 32 MB if you really intend to run X, if not, 24 MB should suffice OR - - consider installing freedos or RxDos with a GUI (www.freedos.org) I got it running (not that I use it though) on a 386 DX 40, 4 MB RAM, 10 MB swap, 120 MB hda - without X, that is.

Hello, I noticed some bug, suuposedly in DosEmu. The problem: I tried some database program, and it was sometimes hanging. With some work I found it attempts to open some file, it fails, and it was repeated. During this, size of memory used by DosEmu was growing until it filled all available memory and causes Linux to crash. The open was by INT 21h, AX=3D41h (write-only deny-none), on normal DOS it succeed, on DosEmu it failed. I wrote simple TSR which converted the open code to 3D42h (read/write deny-none), and then the application signalled error - the file it attempted to open previously was errlog. I wrote TSR to trace DOS calls (previous error I diagnosed using dosdebug, it was easy since it was in loop, just I started dosdebug and asked what the application does) and found it uses INT 21h AX=3D22, it fails in case other terminal runs the application using same data - it is OK, since 3D22 is open read/write deny-write, and the other copy opens the same file read/write deny-none - accesses conflict, then the application tries 3D20 (open read-only deny-write), and it SUCCEEDS (in spite other has write access and write by others is denied in open function code) - the application assumes file is non-writable and refuses any modification. Summary: INT 21h function DosEmu DOS 3d41h Fails OK 3d20h OK Fails when other has write access I don't know, of course, which program works incorrectly: DosEmu or Linux filesystem, but at least the second is wrong.

The normal way to do this is to use a terminal emulator that allows you to program the keyboard. We use Powerterm (www.powerterm.com) here for this and can emulate most key presses. Other emulators would be able to do this too. - --- Stephen Hodgman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Namadgi Systems Ph. +61 2 6285 3460 Canberra Fax +61 2 6285 3459 Australia ------------------------------ From: Robert March <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 09:06:25 -0400 Subject: Re: Ctrl/Alt Fn-keys over telnet?

However, that terminal emulator will need to be able to program and re-program those keys on the fly from within something like a menu script or an application start script. Otherwise, the user would not be able to properly execute various applications that define keys differently. For example, what happens when the user at the emulated terminal leaves dosemu to run a Linux native application or returns to dosemu? The key conversions would then need to be read again. The terminal emulator would need to be able to do this. IMHO this situation would be much better handled by dosemu itself. Dosemu should recognize when it is called from a remote terminal and automatically turn on/off the key conversions or read the terminal scancodes (if a scancode device) directly. - -Robert - -- ____________________________________________________________ Robert W.

That is one way it could be done. I have found that it is simpler to use multiple logins. Do the dosemu emulation in one window and have another login window for native Linux stuff. We do this now and it is quite workable. It keeps Dosemu simpler and means that you can have multiple windows open, each with thier own keymappings if required. - --- Stephen Hodgman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Namadgi Systems Ph. +61 2 6285 3460 Canberra Fax +61 2 6285 3459 Australia ------------------------------ From: Karsten Hilbert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sat, 11 Sep 1999 01:53:42 +0200 (CEST) Subject: Re: Dosemu, X and Linux in minimum Space On Fri, 10 Sep 1999, Karsten Hilbert wrote: Bob: > I would suggest: > > - size of swap according to RAM, RAM+swap should be around 32 MB > if you really intend to run X, if not, 24 MB should suffice in fact, swap should not be anything below 10 MB no matter how much RAM there is, in general the more RAM+swap amounts to, the better Karsten ------------------------------ From: "Michael B." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 15 Sep 1999 10:44:08 +0000 Subject: COM1 not seen. help!

Hi Michael, in my dosemu.conf I left irqpassing empty, used the ports, but I think, you don't need that, entered a directory to ttylock and defined com1 to /dev/ttyS0. I compiled dosemu with the options newint off, because I got a better behavior of the of the serial ports. Have you got the rights to use /dev/ttyS0?

Apparently the work areas and buffers are ok - but whatever communications that it is seeing that already exist and DOSEMU has already set up, it is not working with the program - presumably because in the rs232w it is using an extended API. Anyone with any ideas? I know that this is obviously proprietary software, and that these other programs could do anything, but I would really like to get this to work because then my users could use the system by telnetting in over the ethernet rather than having dedicated serial lines running under dos.

Hello, I need to use a DOS application on my Linux box, and it needs access to a modem on a serial port (COM1). I have things set up and, when I am logged in as root, everything works perfectly. I have dosemu set up so that "regular" users who are listed in the dosemu.users file can use it. Dosemu seems to work ok when I log in as a normal user, except it does not access the serial port. This is a new installation of dosemu-0.99.10.0 . One clue I found is that when I log in as root, the owner and group of the serial port lock file is uucp, uucp respectively. When I log in as a regular user, ownerships are root, users. My user ID is a member of the "users" group. I have read all of the FAQs, HOW-TOs, and newsgroup information that I can find, but haven't found anything that addresses the problem.

After some non-succeful attemps with a kernel upgrade (from RH 2.2.5-15 to 2.2.5-22) I tried browsing through email-archives. Here the suggestion was made to downgrade to the 0.98.8 version whih is a 'stable' release in stead of the 0.99 developer release. This was an improvement in so far that the dosemu was so kind to com back and tell me that it could not read the floppy. The error-logging, however was rather similar: Sep 21 11:28:56 bocpc1 kernel: floppy0: sector not found: track 0, head 1, sector 1, size 2 Sep 21 11:28:57 bocpc1 kernel: floppy0: sector not found: track 0, head 1, sector 1, size 2 Sep 21 11:28:57 bocpc1 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy), sector 18 Dosemu produced these lines several times (once per second). For my configuration the use of a stable release did not bring the expected. Do you have any further suggestions. BTW the floppy hardware works fine. Both mtools and normal linux mounts work fine for both the floppy and the hard disk partitions. Kindest regards, Bas Leeflang - -- Bio-Organic Chemistry group Dr. Bas R.
