Invalid Opcode with BBE Lite on AMD64 (Ubuntu 10.10)

Invalid Opcode with BBE Lite on AMD64 (Ubuntu 10.10)

[bolle]

Hello

I have installed DOSEMU on an Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit system. If I try to
start the Breadbox Ensemble Lite (available at
"http://downloads.breadbox.com/public/Ensemble%20Lite/enslite.zip") with
the command "loader.exe /LOG", I get the following error:

Invalid Opcode at A068 11F7 3246 2010 0298 3246 1C50 62A6 0298 628F 0164
8F00 0298

On all my 32-bit Installation (Ubuntu 10.10), the program works fine. I
tried all different "$_cpu_emu", all with the same error.

Are there any hints how I can provide more (debug) information or solve
the problem or are there some magical configuration entries for the
"dosemu.conf" file ?

Andreas

PS: If a developer tries to install the program, he must start the
installer with "install.exe on drive d", where "d" has to be replaced with
the right drive letter.

I don't know the version of dosemu in Ubunu 10.10. My dosemu is compiled 
from svn. I can't start the program because of the following
error:
System Error Code: KR-07

I have not been able to use dosemu for a long time, through a couple of versions of Fedora: FC11 and now FC12 with 
my x64_64 system. I have had to run my legacy BPI accounting package on a i386 system remotely through a ssh 
session to use it.

I also tried building DosEmu from source, but I had the same op code problem.

I also get op code errors, although different ones with the x86_64 system.  In my case, the problem may be due to 
my x86_64 system being an AMD processor.  I don't have an Intel x86_64 system to try to see if it's the AMD or just 
an x86_64 memory emulation issue.  Is yours an AMD or an Intel?

There were some errors in the emulation code, even in the latest revsion 
of dosemu. All I know of (except 1, for which an patch exits on sf.net) 
are corrected in the latest svn.
I can run my 32-bit dpmi program and my 16-bit dpmi programs without
op code errors, both in full simulation and in jit mode.
My computer has an Intel processesor, but the bugs were on both 
architectures.

ya, I heard of other people having this problem also, eventully these
fixes should get into svn.
