Subject: alone in the dark kills dosemu
Date: Sat, 5 Jun 2004 05:11:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040605121122.GA30978@dirac.org> (raw)
I have a demo of Alone In The Dark (classic game that started the Point
and Click Horror Adventure genre) that seems to kill dosemu. Running
dosemu with "xdosemu -D9S -o logfile", the relevent lines seem to be:
SIGILL while in vm86()
OUCH! attempt to execute interrupt table - quickly dying
leavedos(57|0x39) called - shutting down
leavedos() called from within a signal context!
This is the first time I've ever seen a SIGILL. Didn't even know what
it was when I first saw it.
This is a demo that's played by many other people (who prolly aren't
using dosemu). It shouldn't be doing this.
Is there anything further I can do to figure out what's going on? The
demo is only 700kb; I can upload it somewhere...
Thanks,
Pete
