        Yes,afaik it can run them pretty well (and the few apps I've
tested ran fine, but a little slow), but it runs things better in xdos
that the console dosemu (It can draw things better and I had better luck
with the mouse in X). *Please* do _not_ use the version of dosemu that
was included with RH6.0 though. It is a developer's release. (Why RH
packed it, I don't know) I have heard several newbies using this and
hitting bugs on the linux-msdos list and switching to 0.98 was always the
recommendation.. If you want to run dosemu, please download the 0.98.7
release from ftp.dosemu.org instead. Then you should be fine for now. Is
there a specific app or list of apps you want to run? (If you list them,
I can look into whether they run well, not at all, or with problems)
