Re: [Freedos-user] freedos not installing
Hi Elias, I bought a new Dell n series with freedos. i want to install freedos on it from the CD. All goes well until it asks me to chose 1) FreeDOS beta8 installation... Beta8 is more than 5 years old...! I need help since Dell doesn't support FreeDOS You should still file a complaint and ask Dell to give you the CURRENT version. After all, you paid for FreeDOS, even though it was only the cost of the CD-ROM because the soft- ware itself is free. We do not want to assume that Dell is trying to make FreeDOS look bad by shipping ancient versions, so let us assume that Dell will fix this when told about it.

[Freedos-user] FreeDOS icon
Hi, I saw that the FreeDOS website's icon has changed why?? I think the previous one was much nicer... by the way, the current one is just an adaptation of the MSDOS icon from Windows. :( Mateusz Viste - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS icon
Hi Mateusz, I saw that the FreeDOS website's icon has changed why?? I think the previous one was much nicer... by the way, the current one is just an adaptation of the MSDOS icon from Windows. :( I agree. It is a bad idea to use a MS style icon. Especially when we can use a really nice FreeDOS fish icon instead! Does anybody have a copy of the old icon? Otherwise we would have to wait until Jim returns so he can reactivate the old icon himself.

LAME is a mp3 encoder. (I used GCC 4.1.2., and compressed it with UPX. Why not GCC 4.2.0? ;-) Because I haven't used NCURSE, the screen output won't be that nice.) One could use the GNU termcap library + ANSI.SYS. But I know another more smarter way previously used by Eli Zaretskii.
