Hi, is there a way to execute dos programs in wine. I found a dosmod executable in the wine binary rpm. I know that there is an dos emulator named dosemu but after updating to SuSE 7.2 some dos programs (maybe programs using dpmi memory like DBase) crashes with "segmentation fault". Before they had running fine in dosemu. -- Gruss Marcus Marcus Roeckrath -- Vikarsbusch 8 -- D-48308 Senden -- Germany Phone : +49-2536-9944 -- Mailer/BBS/Fax : +49-2536-9943 (V34, X75) FidoNet: 2:2449/523 E-Mail : marcus.roeckrath@gmx.de WWW : http://home.foni.net/~marcusroeckrath/

Before they had running fine in dosemu. Try "wine <dos-programm.exe>" on a well configured system. Some programs will run, but the focus has not yet been on graphic intensive programms. While dosemu requires an underlying DOS (with the need for a license when MS Dos is used) Wine also reimplements the DOS environment. Dosemu had some big changes in the last time. It should work however.
