[announce] dosemu-1.2.2

[Bart Oldeman]

A new stable version is out, 1.2.2, and you can obtain it from
http://www.dosemu.org/stable

Version 1.2.2 (2004-07-11)
=============
* Backported bitmap font support for xdosemu from the development code.
  These are used by default! If you want to use the X fonts you must
  explicitly set $_X_font="vga" or use "xmode -font vga" at the DOS
  prompt. $_X_bilin_filt=(on) may help for prettier fonts in full-screen
  mode and scaled windows.
* Backported via-Unicode translations for filenames on lredir'ed drives
  (from iso-8859x to cpxxx and so on).
* The hogtheshold code was reorganized to be able to pass through certain
  events quicker (such as loading a file in FreeDOS EDIT) even when you 
  have it set to "1".
* Fixed all new warnings with GCC 3.4.
* Fixed compilation problem with Fedora Core 2 headers.
* Added cp895 and bg-mik character set support.
* Many VGAEMU bugs were fixed, and bitmap fonts are much quicker.
* Allow "fast" i/o ports above 0x400 for kernels that support it
  (2.6.7-mm kernels only for now)
* Implemented VxD hooks for WinOS2: seems to solve all remaining problems with
  Win3.1(WinOS2): allows Alt-Tab and the timer.
* Some non-intrusive DPMI and DOS extender fixes.
* An automatic backtrace using GDB (output in ~/.dosemu/boot.log)
  is attempted when DOSEMU crashes.
* Serial code fixes.
* Corrected int15/ax=e801 for so $_xms > 64M is reported correctly by MEM.
* Fix NPTL issues when switching VC's on the console.
* Check /proc/net/ipx/route etc for kernel 2.6.x.
* Fixed read/write problem for files with negative file offsets on
  lredir'ed drives.

I'm sure it doesn't need to be said, but thanks for what you do here. Your
work, and the work of your predecessors, allows me to continue to use my
DOS database to run my office, on a Linux box.

With this version, I notice with a particular database program
(DataPerfect), setting hogthreshold to 1 causes printing problems (jobs not
sent to the printer without first doing other things in the application
unrelated to printing). This occurs even with a low printer timeout value.
If I set hogsthreshold to 2, this problem vanishes, but the CPU usage rises
from 0 to 86% and stays there.

With version 1.2.1, hogthreshold at 2 keeps the CPU at 60% and printing is
almost immediate at a timeout value of 10.

I know this doesn't give you much information regarding this problem, but I
can say that with 1.2.2 (hog = 1, printer timeout = 10), printing occurs as
soon as I switch away from the app in question, and back to the shell
program that calls it. This seems to release the DOS TSR that spools the
data to the printer. If I don't do that, printing will not occur no matter
how long I wait. However, if I increase the hog value to 2, I don't need to
switch back to the shell for immediate printing. For now, I'm using hog
value 2, which keeps my CPU up around 86%.

Probably the attached patch can

Well, I'll wait until the next binary. I'm not sure how to use that patch.
I'm clearly not a very sophistated Linux user.

You can also upgrade from CVS. As a bonus,
all the remaining problems with MaxThink
(if there are still), should vanish.
If you do neither, then the next binary
is not guaranteed to have your problem
eliminated.

I understand. Well, MaxThink has worked well since 1.2.1. I'll check out CVS
and see what I can do. Thanks.

I downloaded and successfully compiled and installed dosemu 1.3.1. I find
the same problems with printing that I outlined before. I assume that 1.3.1
has the patch you talked about earlier.

No, 1.3.1 was released on the same day as 1.2.2, it doesn't contain Stas' 
fix.

Since you have successfully compiled and installed 1.3.1, you've done most 
of the hard work already. What you'd need to do is:

save Stas' patch as lpt.diff in the dosemu source directory, and cd to it.
Then type

patch -p0 < lpt.diff
make
su
make install

Ah, okay. Well I followed the directions for patching and installing. What I
I get now,  when attempting to load the app in question, is this:

Here's more detail I have extracted from this. With 1.3.1, I can't print
with hogthreshold at either 1 or 2. With 1.2.2, I can print with hog at 1
only if I switch back to the shell application that calls the app, and I
can print with hog at 2 without having to switch back to the shell
application at all.

With 1.3.1, if I attempt to kick off the printing by switching back to the
shell application, I get this:

We'd like to see boot.log when DOSEMU has crashed, not when it has 
terminated normally.

Alternatively try
xdosemu -o logfile.txt
make it crash and send the contents of logfile.txt. Please make sure you 
have gdb installed.

Yes. I just realized that after attaching that boot.log. So I attached
another one here, with the crash data in it.

Hi Ralph,

Stas did not only try to fix something, but also cleaned up. This cleaning 
up was problematic (note to Stas: fops.write can be either printer_write 
or stub_printer_write; printer_write is not a wrapper that calls the 
function pointer -- and *if* you're cleaning up you should change *that* 
and preferably in a seperate patch to make it easier for me to merge with 
-stable!)

Ralph, please revert Stas' patch using
patch -R < lpt.diff
(or by untarring the 1.3.1 or 1.2.2 source code) and then apply my patch 
(attached):

patch < lpt2.diff

and try again.

Bart

I untarred 1.3.1, did a ./configure, and then did

patch < lpt2.diff

Here's what I get:

        ralvy@libranet:~/dosemu-1.3.1-src$ patch < lpt2.diff
        (Stripping trailing CRs from patch.)
        can't find file to patch at input line 3
        Perhaps you should have used the -p or --strip option?
        The text leading up to this was:

I'm not sure what to tell it at this point.

Should that have been

        patch -p0 < lpt.diff

instead?

Okay, I figured that after reading the patch man page, so went ahead and did

        patch -p0 < lpt2.diff

on a configured 1.3.1 untarred source. After 'make' and 'make install' I
find that I no longer crash like before, but I have the same problems
previously outlined:

        hogthreshold of 1 lets my cpu stay down, but won't let me print without
taking extraneous steps after issuing the print command.

        hogthreshold of 2 keeps my cpu at about 86%, but lets the app's print
command yield immediate printing without extraneous steps.

Dumb question, but are you certain that you are running the new dosemu
executable?  Issue a 'which dosemu' to see which one the shell is
running, and ls -l that file to ensure that the timestamp indicates that
it is the freshly compiled one.  It is possible that you have one
sitting around e.g. both in /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin, or something
like that.

I have the config file set to install in 

        ~/dosemu-1.3.1

and I run xdosemu from 

        ~/dosemu-1.3.1/bin

Simply typing

        xdosemu

instead of 

        ./xdosemu

from that directory yields nothing. So I don't have any stray dosemu
occurrences being grabbed. My 1.2.1 and 1.2.2 versions are also all local
installs.

And the splash screen that arises on loading, shows the correct version and
configure date.
