I have difference: in X they are *-koi8-r and in Dos they are *-ibm-cp866. So I have special font with ibm-cp866 codepage for xdosemu. I've put it in my dosemu dir, /home/bga/dosemu/Xfonts (it's for dosemu-1.0.2), put fonts.alias to that dir: --- vgacyr -dosemu-vga-medium-r-normal--17-160-75-75-p-80-ibm-cp866 --- and this string to /home/bga/dosemu/conf/dosemurc: --- $_X_font = "vgacyr" --- You can do all this stuff or just add font alias to system (if font is already present in system): your_font-bla-bla-bla-*.*-codepage And $_X_font = "your_font" to dosemurc or dosemu.conf. -- Grigory Batalov. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I don't quite understand why you'd want to run network DOOM (except for the heck of it, seeing that it works, nice) in DOSEMU but anyway ... As you're probably talking about other games here. The last IPX patch in the changelog dates from 1997. I'm not sure in what state it is now, particularly with the latest Linux kernels. A little http://groups.google.com browsing reveals that - the Novell VLM client should work in your configuration, even non-suid-root (run vlm in autoexec.bat). - alternatively with a (suid-)root DOSEMU you can run pdether or pdipx. You'll have to look up these articles yourself, I've never even tried to do this.

Re: Sound+dpmi patch
Hello. Boris wrote: > So is something wrong with the DPMI part of dosemu that > haults Doom2? This patch simply measures a time period of a disabled interrupts and re-enables them in case of a timeout (timeout is set in a $_features, my recommendation is 200 usecs). Doom2 needs this because it uses a popf instr to enable the ints, which doesn't touch the IF flag because IOPL < CPL and doesn't generate an exception due to a bug/limitation/feature of an Intel's CPUs. But force re-enabling the interrupts can hurt other programs esp. given the current state of the dosemu's PIC code (badly broken), that is one problem. The other problem is that 200us timeout is OK for Doom2 (but as you told, it stutters) but probably not OK for some other progs and you will have to calibrate it in your dosemu.conf. > If so, why is it a dangerous hack and why not put it into > the main source [and not have to use the features option to set it?]. Right, of course it doesn't hurt unless explicitly enabled. The reason why it is still not in the mainstream (atleast why I haven't submitted it) is because I have to try some other ways of solving this problem. For example we can do a blacklist of a cli unstructions that have triggered an extended timeout (1 sec for ex) and ignore (rather than patching out) that cli's for the subsequent passes. That will (atleast theoretically) allow to get rid of the both stated above problems. > Also, It says that the sound patch emulates a SB Pro, ... which still have some problems... Classic SB, however, is emulated nearly perfectly now, speaking about its DSP. > Does it do MIDI > yet? OKey, the confusion here is that my patch deals only with the following subsystems: SB DSP, SB Mixer and DMA. Other parts (such as MPU401 and OPL) are yet out of the scope. So, for MIDI you can use an MPU401 which used to work nearly perfectly for years in dosemu but you'll need a built-in MIDI support in your sound card and /dev/midi configured. OPL is not supported yet, but I have some plans on supporting it in the future (with the MAME OPL2 emulator, I think). > a midi hack would be excellent too. :) The midi "hack" is not trivial to hack it in:) Even with the ready-for-use MAME OPL emu, we still need a software mixing layer to get it working together with a digital sound. > Is the IPX part of dosemu broken?

No need: I have never dealt with dosemu's IPX support. So try dosemu-bugs mailing list CC'ing here at the same time, and maybe someone will pick it up. There are many developers that are silent in this list, but reading it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
Re: emu serial port help
i am running 1.0.2. i don't believe i set the $_comX option, but i did set the option to allow access for port 0x3f0 to 0x3ff. the code i'm trying to run does not go through the bios, but to the hardware. so, how do i take control of port 3f8 away from linux? i suppose i could hack serial.c and load it as a module maybe. or i could find an old discrete serial card and hack the address lines to something other than 3f8. i'm still thinking there might be something a little easier. thanks, eddie --- Stas Sergeev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello. > > gobo wrote: > > trying to access com1 (3f0 - 3ff)under dosemu. > i've > > given dosemu access to that address range. > dosemu emulates serial ports, so no need to use a > direct > access.
