As I told you before [:-)], your package contains version 2.14 executable. So I compiled a version 2.15 from your sources. At first time it worked fine. Then I copied fed.exe to my dos dir. After that it won't work, because (i think so) that configuration file. I have saved my settings which tell fed to open a screen with 43 lines.

If I drive it in same dir than fed.cfg, IT CRASHES. , can you give details of what > djgpp package versions you are using? well latest, i believe... it's only month or couple old > Otherwise, details about what DOS version: 6.20 (don't you download all messages from this NG?) > and what type of hardware (in particular your > graphics card) would be useful here. Well I have laptop 486/50Mhz/250MB/20MB and I don't know it's graphics card. It's Compaq Contura 410. > To get any more accurate info from the traceback you'll need > to build a version with a debug copy of libc, but that means > recompiling at least some of the libc sources on your machine. Maybe I'm satisfied with running it from windows :-) > It's a shame I can't get my copy to crash in this way! Maybe this is same problem that I had before... you remember, new gfx drivers wouldn't work with my machine, only that GFX_PARADISE worked when I downloaded it from allegro site... ** Sakari Forsberg zacu AT cc DOT tut DOT fi ** ** Information: finger zacu AT assari DOT cc DOT tut DOT fi **
