dosemu 1.1.3.9 user report

[Jan Willem Stumpel <jstumpel@planet.nl>]

According to "top", 1.1.3.9 takes up 99 % CPU even when just
displaying the C:> prompt.

1.1.3.7 does this also; but 1.1.3.0 and 1.0.2.1 do not. They
hardly use any CPU when just displaying the prompt (or waiting for
a keystroke in a text-mode program).

Wolfenstein 3D:
1.0.2.1, 1.1.3.7, 1.1.3.9 play with $_sound = (off) .
1.1.3.0 hangs (with or without sound) after displaying the
start-up (setup) screen. Control-Alt-PgDn is the only way out.
1.1.3.7, 1.1.3.9 hang with $_sound = (on) .

Duke Nukem3D:
1.0.2.1 plays fine without sound.
1.1.3.0 plays without sound, but after a short while suddenly
disappears (no more dosemu window).
1.1.3.7, 1.1.3.9 play, with $_sound = (on) and soundblaster
selected in Duke Nukem Setup. I can see *and hear* the demo
(sounds, no music). When I want to start a game, I can select the
game type ("L.A. Meltdown" or whatever); however, when I try to
select the difficulty level the program hangs.

All this with kernel 2.2.18pre21, $_dpmi = (8192) , $_hogthreshold
= (800).
