Hi,
I have xdosemu running fine under gnome but experience the mouse click
problem under kde.
I am attempting to get it running in a terminal and am experiencing some
difficulties.
When I finish my dos session and type exitemu or attempt to switch terminals
or back to x I get some kind of weird lock with my monitor going to non
active mode and my machine inaccessable.
I am running Mandrake 9.0 and the problem occurs both with dosemu 1.1.3.0
and 1.0.2.1
The graphics card is a nvidia tnt 32Mb as such i have used the plainvga
setting for unsupported cards.
I have tried lots of settings in the conf file but so far to no avail.
I have read on one of the old lists that there maybe a bios issue. If this
is the case can someone tell me what may need changing and what it does I
have amibios simple setup utility 1.24k (I don't usually even look in there
as my brother sets up that side of my machine).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Any flames for inappropriate newbie behaviour understood.
Paul
PS As an incentive to all my windows me disk is now about 2 programs away
from becoming a drinks coaster {after I've knicked all the dlls for
possible use in wine :)}.
