Hello,
	being not yet very familiar with Linux and after one week of trying 
to get on with dosemu and to understand the documentation I am near 
to despair...

My problems.
	I am not succeeding in configuring for east europaen characters and 
layout (cp852, latin-2) in dosemu 1.1.4.0, the changings of 
dosemu.conf had no effects. With dosemu 1.0.2.1, it works better, but 
also there are two characters and keys, which dont work.
	Trying to use bigger fonts (vga11x19), failure, have executed these 
things with mkfontdir, no effect. 
	Can't run dosemu 1.1.4.0. in an X-window: there comes the message:
"ERROR: X: Can't open display ":0.0".
the connection was refused and you do not have enough rights to 
connect to your X server or there is something wrong with the 
contents of your DISPLAY variable. " 
Dosemu 1.0.2.1 starts in an X-window.
I am using MS-DOS 6. 20, Suse 8.1 on a Sony-laptop. Please tell me, 
which information you need for diagnosis.
	 it's essentiel for me to run Dos-programs under Linux, therefore 
help will be highly appreciated.

Greetings
Heinz

There are known configuration problems with 1.1.4.0.  Please try 1.1.4.15 - 
maybe that will solve it.

You might also need "xset fp rehash" after "mkfontdir".

Did you "su" to another user before trying to run it?
If so, you need to type "xhost +localhost" before doing so (or just open up 
another xterm now and type it).
