Re: [Freedos-user] 4th-Grade English.
The way this post has degenerated I think demonstrates exactly what the original poster was trying to say. Somehow the replies became fixed on his comment about use of language. I think what he was really trying to get at is the lack of being able to support a point of view from a logically constructed argument with reference back to the original question. If you read the last post and the first post you could wonder if the two have anything to do with each other. I believe he was saying that it is not too hard to proof read a post and ask yourself does this follow from the original topic. Logic and analysis should be able to be demonstrated regardless of the language abilities of the poster. -- The demand for IT networking professionals continues to grow, and the demand for specialized networking skills is growing even more rapidly.

[Freedos-user] Failure of Print-Screen (Screenshot) in Freedos Depending on How Full Screen was Entered
For your information (no longer a problem) Assume I am on Ubuntu Desktop. Then use terminal command sudo dosemu. A small (approx. 2" by 4") window appears. I usually go to full screen in 2 ways: (1) click in the box in upper right, corner; or (2). use the CTRL-ALT-F key combination. The Printscreen key works (brings up my Screenshot save file window) with method (1) and not with method (2). When I exit Dosemu to Ubuntu having used Method (2). I have a 2' black band down left side of screen, No band appears when I used Method (1). I have a NEC Accusync LCD 223WXM monitor with a nVidia G72 (GeForce 7300 LE) graphics card. Seems like some monitor parameter is not being reset properly when leaving dosemu?

Hi! > Assume I am on Ubuntu Desktop. Then use terminal command sudo dosemu. Dosemu needs not and should not be run as root, it works fine in X :-) > small (approx. 2" by 4") window appears.

The Printscreen key works (brings up my > Screenshot save file window) with method (1) and not with method (2). That is interesting. On the other hand, as you already use xdosemu in X anyway, you can simply use any Ubuntu screenshot tool of your choice. By the way, you can select text in the DOS window with the mouse and then use the middle mouse button to paste that text elsewhere... :-) > Seems like some monitor parameter is not being reset > properly when leaving dosemu? As said, it runs better without being root. > My grandson Brian Thompson, solved this for me. Still interesting to know how he did.

[Freedos-user] FreeDOS, Arachne, and VirtualBox
Hello all, I am a FreeDOS newbie, and hope to get Arachne up and running with my Ulrich Hansen VBox image-- no luck so far! I am able to ping and wget with success, but Arachne doesn't seem to recognize the dhcp. My Wattcp.cfg: my_ip = dhcp IP = dhcp netmask = 255.255.255.0 gateway = 192.168.1.1 domain_list = mydomain.net In my arachne.cfg, I have included in tcp/ip: IP_Address = BOOTP TCPconfig = lantcp.cfg I have tried in the Arachne setup directing everything to my wattcp.cfg, no luck. I have also tried the fixed address settings, not working either. I have had trouble with my Avast Antivirus blocking things (Host, Win7, I had to enable Internet Sharing)-- could this be a firewall issue?
