Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS running on Linux

Hi, I made a very small Linux distro called Nanolinux which is only 14 MB in size: https://sourceforge.net/projects/nanolinux/ I could add Virtualbox to that and then you would get a bootable ISO with about 50 to 70 MB in size that would run your DosemuLimpo (Although I did not manage to

Re: [Freedos-user] opengem

Will you 1) be moving your project hosting and 2) porting to DJGPP 2.05? I already moved the files to Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/fltk-dos/ But I still have to add screenshots and stuff at that site. Yes, when DJGPP 2.05 is released I plan to use that. At the moment I find

Re: [Freedos-user] opengem

DOS doesn't have OpenGL (except software-only ancient versions of Mesa, which was never widely used in most DJGPP programs). There is also my TinyGL port to DOS: https://code.google.com/p/nanox-microwindows-nxlib-fltk-for-dos/wiki/TinyGL Georg

Re: [Freedos-user] Web browsers: Arachne search fails, Dillo works

Google checks the user agent string the browser returns to determine what features the browser supports. Then it decides what type of page it sends to the browser. With Dillo the user agent string can be set in the dillorc file. Since it reports Dillo as the browser Google puts it into the

Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS 2.0 GUI

There is a free XServer and Client for DOS: Nano-X which I ported to DOS: https://code.google.com/p/nanox-microwindows-nxlib-fltk-for-dos/ Since programming on the X11 level is not common today, you rather use GTK or Qt, I also ported the FLTK GUI to DOS. This GUI has far more features than a

[Freedos-user] MetaDOS floppy distro - XFDOS - DOS4WIN64 Qemu environment

Re: [Freedos-user] MetaDOS floppy distro - XFDOS - DOS4WIN64 Qemu environment

DOS4WIN64 is not intended to run on old PCs. I just try to keep packages small to allow for fast downloads and fast program loads. There is a lot of DOS software that will not run on Windows 7 or 8 in 64bit mode. To allow DOS applications to be used on these systems they can be bundled with

Re: [Freedos-user] MetaDOS floppy distro - XFDOS - DOS4WIN64 Qemu environment

I will use later versions of Qemu in the next release. However, I would like to use binaries that use SDL instead of GTK because I think these require less disk space. Qemu is faster than Bochs if you run it on the processor it is currently emulating. It will then use the real processor to

[Freedos-user] New FreeDOS distribution, Carbon

Corbin, You may also use FLTK instead of OpenGEM for the Desktop environment. FLTK is currently maintained and supported well. Plus you can use Truetype fonts. http://code.google.com/p/nanox-microwindows-nxlib-fltk-for-dos/ Based on that I made the XFDOS distribution:

[Freedos-user] New FreeDOS distribution, Carbon

I'll definitely have to check FLTK out. Does it support opening normal DOS programs? To make sure any program will run, the desktop is started from a batch file loop. If the icon on the desktop is configured for a normal program the desktop will terminate and pass the program name to execute

Hello Kurt, thank you for testing XFDOS. What I observed now is that if you run ping or tcpinfo before starting Dillo there are problems. I do not know yet what causes this. One user of Dillo reported that you should erase the W32DHCP.TMP file to avoid network hangs and I think the problem has
