I'm trying to install a Win95 vintage program, EWview, from a set of three floppies in WINE 1.1.9, buy all I'm seeing is: $ wine setup.exe err:dosmem:load_winedos Could not load winedos.dll, DOS subsystem unavailable winevdm: unable to exec 'D:\ewview3.08.2\one\setup.exe': DOS support unavailable However, I would seem to have winedos.dll installed: $ locate winedos.dll /usr/lib/wine/winedos.dll.so I've read the documentation, FAQs, HOWTOs and known bugs at WineHQ but nothing mentions this problem. Obviously I'm missing something, but what? Martin
