There is only one proper place for that:
BTS at SourceForge. Attaching the files
elsewhere has a very big chances of being
ignored/missed/forgotten. You sent it to
me privately because these times there was
no BTS for dosemu.

I don't remember how exactly it worked for
me, but I guess it never produced any music
output. I only remember it started up and
was functional unless I tried to play music
with it.
Only now (right now) I have committed the patch
that allows vapimpu.com to initialize, and
therefore M to produce the music. Upgrade your
dosemu from CVS and find vapimpu.com now
functional.

Did I? Well, there could be lots of reasons.
Probably because you haven't tested some patch
to midid that I did for you, or because you
were using 1.0.2, or because your page still
refers to an old, non-functional pc-speaker
drivers instead of mine that is up-to-date and
is perfectly functional? :)) Well, I don't
really remember:)
But jokes aside, the problem might probably be
your DOS version (try MS-DOS 6.22 or PC-DOS 7
with setver.exe). And yes, that program still
hangs on a startup screen for about 2 minutes
and the mouse doesn't work if you use the
internal driver (which is justified in that case),
but other than that it works perfectly here.
