Hi all,

I have a problem with console fonts in dosemu. The Norton Commander and other
programs show a deranged screen with strange line characters in console mode.
In X-Windows everything is okay.

The RPM-Package with dosemu-1.0.2 is okay in console mode.

Dosemu-1.1.3, 1.1.3.7, 1.1.4 and 1.1.4.6 all show the strange characters in
console mode. I tried all modes in dosemu.conf with

$_term_char_set = "ibm", "latin", "latin1"
$_external_char_set = "", "iso8859-1", "iso8859-15"
$_internal_char_set = "cp437", "cp850"

in console mode its all the same.

I even tried

echo -ne '\033(U'

without any change.

Do I have to change the console fonts?

Specs: Mandrake Linux release 8.1 (Vitamin) for i586
Kernel 2.4.8-26mdk on an i686

Any ideas?

Claudia
