Dosemu help
Hello all, I downloaded dosemu 0.64.3 and compiled it according to the Quickstart. I am currently running kernel 2.0.9. If I understand correctly, my kernel DOES NOT require any patching to enable vm86plus with this latest version of dosemu. When I try to run dos I get, vm86plus service not available in your kernel. The kernel IS compiled with SYSVIPC enabled - this is the IPC required by dosemu is it not? When I compile dosemu with no vm86plus, it works ok, but I want this feature enabled. What am I doing wrong? The documentation is rather outdated but from what I have read, vm86plus should work. Thanks to Phillipe Troin for the suggestion on Afterstep, installing the 8 bit icons did restore my colormap. 8-) Pat Van Ryn [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Debian + AfterStep= no color
Hi all, My specs: 486 DX-2 66mhz 20 megs RAM STB Horizon video card w/ 1 meg RAM I currently have Slackware with XFree 3.1.2 installed on HDA5 and I recently decided to try Debian 1.3 with XFree 3.3, which is now installed on HDA3. Afterstep is my window manager in both cases. I have no problems with the Slackware setup - Afterstep works beautifully and is very appealing visually. Under Debian however, I have almost NO color. Upon exit I see the message: Warning: Cannot allocate colormap entry for [color] My XF86Config is the same in both cases, as is my .steprc. My root window has a simple grey background, I am running at 8bpp, nothing special loaded except the wharf and Afterstep icons. I have shutdown everything I can prior to starting X, I have plenty of swap space allocated. The results are the same whether I start X as root or user. I have been RTFM but cannot find anything that refrences this particular problem. RGB.txt is in the proper place and path set. Suggestions? Did I forget to install / configure something? Do I need to downgrade to 3.1.2? The window manager is FUNCTIONAL but it certainly does not look as good. The thing that really confounds me is that the same setup works so well with Slackware.
