Subject: fragmented screen in Win3.x
Date: Sat, 8 Dec 2007 08:22:17 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0712080743280.4635@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
I recently installed dosemu 1.4. When I run windows in a dos box all is
well EXCEPT that there is a black bar starting about 1/8 of the way from
the top of the screen that splits it in two. The mouse straddles this
bar as if it wasn't there. The bottom ~1/8 of the screen is then cut off
and inaccessible. This occurs exactly the same whether I use the FREEDOS
provided and load Windows 3.1, or I boot from my old C: drive with DR-DOS
and Win3.11. I can't seem to eliminate it by playing with the Windows
display settings either. This is on a Fedora 7 system / Asus board with
integrated Intel graphics. Anyone else seen this?
Not complaining though! dosemu 1.4 is a marvel. For years I've been
looking for a way to run ImageQuant 3.3 (quantitative image analysis
software) on Linux. Crossover Office just crashes. On dosemu/Win3.11 it
runs flawlessly (well, except for the screen bar and a slightly funky
mouse cursor). Wordperfect 6.1 in text mode with 132-character-wide
screen is great too, just set "text screen" to "auto".
