The error message refers to a free-ware DPMI server, called cwsdpmi.
It is normally used with programs compiled under the `DJGPP'
environment for DOS (which is an alternative to the `EMX' environment
used by the emTeX programs).  Three possible solutions:

        1.  Use under Windows (any flavour) or OS/2, which provide 
        their own DPMI services.

        2. Get the source for musixflx and recompile using the EMX
        development tools.

        3. Get the cwsdpmi program.

For (3), look at a DJGPP directory on a simtelnet mirror site.  For
instance:
        ftp.cdrom.com/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2misc/csdpmi4b.zip


My documentation for DJGPP mentions that there is a German simtelnet
mirror site, as follows:
        ftp.mpi-sb.mpg.de (directory /pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp)

Good luck,

Andrew Gray
