Kernel 2.6
Anyone had any luck running DOSEMU on kernel 2.6? I installed test6, getting coredumps as it loads. Any known trick, or should I disclose more info?

DPMI crashes because DOSEMU makes assumptions about the CS and DS registers which changed in 2.6 because Linus added support for sysenter. This DOSEMU bug is presently only fixed in the CVS. Alternatively look at the patch here:

which also mentions a problem with vm86 (but that's a kernel issue).
