OK, I think all the problems we have with video, are because dosemu is trying to POST the video bios not accordingly the PCI specs. I intended to introduce a POST-less video init together with the VESA support, which is stalled due to some problems with kernel, but I think I just can introduce the POST-less video init code also without a VESA support, which is rather easy to do. I'll let you know when if I'll get the patch ready soon. > BTW the sound which was working > well in 1.1.3.0 seems partly broken again in 1.1.3.7 Fine :-/ Now, when my new sound engine finally made it in (which was the one of the top requested features), there will surely be someone who will call it broken:) > but that's not something that really concerns me. That is important and concerns me. My sound engine is not perfect overall, but compared with an old crap, I don't want to have any drawbacks. Please open the bug report on dosemu SourceForge BTS and attach you program to that report so that I can reproduce and fix the problem.
