I could go back to HTML style to get nice formatting, but then you'd have to fight off Eric Auer for me, so if you want to do the battle, let me know who wins and I'll change or not, accordingly. What I won't do is change away from using the world-standard multi-platform Eudora after ten+ years along with a few million other people. Perhaps that's arrogant or petty or annoying, but it's my line in the sand as far as a compromise there. >Anyway, has FDXMS been verified to work with EMM386? Not by me -- it's been enough work to support HIMEM. Theoretically FDXMS should work if they aren't doing anything in the code which is non-standard or unexpected. But theory gets shot down a lot around these parts, so could be fundamentally incompatible. My take is this: I won't change anything to work around a problem within FDXMS itself, but I will certainly change anything which is erroneous or questionable in EMM386 and makes it fail with FDXMS. >DEVICE=FDXMS.SYS >DEVICE=EMM386.EXE X=A000-EFFF > >btw, X=A000-FFFF is simply ignored completely (IIRC), as upper bound is beyond the >EFFF. Could be a problem for FFFF, but I said EFFF for the exclusion test. If the whole thing is ignored at Fxxx ranges, it really should be fixed to allow them as valid range (even though it's unused). However, I still need to re-sync HIMEM and EMM386 with Tom Ehlert's last changes and re-test to ensure everybody's using exactly the same _single_ version, but I've been enjoying a nice break from all that. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: SourceForge.net Broadband Sign-up now for SourceForge Broadband and get the fastest 6.0/768 connection for only $19.95/mo for the first 3 months! http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=2562&alloc_id=6184&op=click _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
