Hello.

Yes - the problem remains as it was. I'll try playing with some more settings but it doesn't seem promising.

OK, I think all the problems we have with video, are because dosemu is trying to POST the video bios not accordingly the PCI specs.
I intended to introduce a POST-less video init together with the VESA support, which is stalled due to some problems with kernel, but I think I just can introduce the POST-less video init code also without a VESA support, which is rather easy to do. I'll let you know when if I'll get the patch ready soon.

BTW the sound which was working well in 1.1.3.0 seems partly broken again in 1.1.3.7

Fine :-/
Now, when my new sound engine finally made it in (which was the one of the top requested features), there will surely be someone who will call it broken:)

but that's not something that really concerns me.

That is important and concerns me. My sound engine is not perfect overall, but compared with an old crap, I don't want to have any drawbacks. Please open the bug report on dosemu SourceForge BTS and attach you program to that report so that I can reproduce and fix the problem.
