The library uses direct hardware access, so dosemu is run with the -s switch. When "dosemu -s" is run from a terminal window in Gnome, FreeDOS starts fine and the application runs fine. As the goal is to run this application on an embedded system, it would be proper to run "dosemu -s" from a terminal session rather than Gnome. When this is done, the following lines are output: Running as root in full feature mode osemu.confot available (outw), save_vga_state failed. Googling for the second message doesn't find anything useful. Anybody know what the message means and how to work around it? Thank you. David
