Date: Wed, 25 Feb 1998 21:20:32 +0200 Organization: UUNET Internet Africa Lines: 24 Message-ID: Reply-To: bmerry AT iafrica DOT com NNTP-Posting-Host: 196-31-83-66.iafrica.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com DJ-Gateway: from newsgroup comp.os.msdos.djgpp Precedence: bulk Hi I've recently been (trying) to do develop with DJGPP under DOSEmu, because a) I'm not too experienced with interrupt handlers and that stuff and C-A-Pgdn is a lot handier than the reset button and b) I'm in Linux anyway, why exit? Anyway, I find that make.exe and gcc.exe might segfault, depending on the phases of the moons of Jupiter. I've read the Linux bit in the DJGPP faq, and fiddling with the amounts of xms, ems and dpmi didn't help. I downloaded the dpmi-djgpp-dosemu.mail or whatever from ftp.delorie.com, but it seems I must have a version of dosemu where the patch has been applied. Any other ideas on why it won't run reliably (it also seems to be slower than DOS w/ Smartdrv).
