I downloaded some of the files I think I needed and so far so good.
The DPMI _is_ fixed somewhat as the page stated. Ran some DJGPP-compiled
programs (Lynx, jed, MultiMail) and they worked just fine. With the 
previous emm386 my machine would either reboot automatically or
lock up.
The page also states that there may still be a problem with go32 related
programs and I found that to be the case. EXT2 Tools (for reading
Linux partitions) didn't work but a .mov player that also uses go32
seemed to work fine.

Anyone try DRMOUSE yet? It won't work at all and keeps saying
No Mouse Detected. Tried all the switches I could but no go.

The page also mentions something about LFN with regards to command.com
but as far as I know there still isn't any LFN support in this command.com.
