I have an old accounting application (Pastel) which works perfectly in dosemu (1.0.2.1), but every now and again it dies with: ------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------ C:\PACC\FROGFOOT> Error loading overlay. Bywerkmodus Num=B3 5:24 nm ------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------ Problem is I can't figure out why it can't load the overlay and (surprise) the company that sells this doesn't support it anymore and just wants us to upgrade to the Windows software. I've run this with debugging enabled (-D+a) in the hopes that someone can see what is causing the application to die (can't it find the overlay? (unlikely). does it run out of base memory, ems, xms, etc? is there some unsupported dos call which it is trying to execute? is overlays supported in dosemu at all?) --=20 Regards Abraham Five is a sufficiently close approximation to infinity. -- Robert Firth "One, two, five." -- Monty Python and the Holy Grail ___________________________________________________ Abraham vd Merwe - Frogfoot Networks CC 9 Kinnaird Court, 33 Main Street, Newlands, 7700 Phone: +27 21 686 1674 Cell: +27 82 565 4451 Http: http://www.frogfoot.net/ Email: abz@frogfoot.net --3V7upXqbjpZ4EhLz Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE+fyYY0jJV70h31dERApy6AJ9ZCZB9pbaAOMlCOi7ZvZQ7sZXayACfc4v9 okDp3skaDuLH70R6bCS+cyg= =skBb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --3V7upXqbjpZ4EhLz--
