Debian Potato (Frozen) with Slink KDE I have installed the DosEmu package and set it up as per included instructions by creating a boot directory in /var/lib/dosemu with soft links to the appropriate Dos files.
As Root I can run the emulator and the Dos application, that I want to run, with no problems. As a user the Dos application displays an error because it tries to create a log file on the Dos disc and fails because I don't have root permissions. I know that I can 'su' first and then run it but I want to set the process up as a script that starts the application without user intervention i.e. having to enter a password. Is there a way round this? Also as I'm running the xdos version if I do 'su' I get an x server error: xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server xlib: Client is not authorised to connect to server Another slight problem is in setting up the emulator this way it cannot be closed down using exitemu because exitemu doesn't exist in the boot directory. Is there also a way round that. Barry Samuels
