I looks as if the two are somewhat intertwined with 1.1.9 wanting to insert itself into /root from /home/ areas. I had 0 /etc/dosemu.users files and 1 /etc/dosemu.conf file. I had rename the dosemu-1.1.5 directories/files as old-dosemu... The 1.1.9 errors were: ERROR: x: unable to open font vga Error: trying "vga" " x: " " vga " " "9x15" You do not have dosemu vga font installed & are running remote x. You need to install the vga font on your local server. Look @the readme for details. For now we start with a fixed font which does not display all ................... be warned. I had already deleted the 1.1.9 so could not run xdosemu -D+dD -o log. I'll try to reinstall soon. What do you make of 1.1.9 intruding on the 1.1.5 install? I guess I didn't delete all its references and it is there?
