Also, when I run dosemu -X, I get the usual nonX dosemu. When I exitemu, I see this on the terminal screen:
ERROR: X support not compiled in
However, when I did the compile, X was turned on in the compile settings file. Did it twice with the same results.
right, you probably didn't install the X development libraries -- your distribution should have them, look for the xlibs-dev or xlibs-devel package or similar. You can see that if you run
./configure
and look at the warnings it tell you about at the end.

Thanks for taking the time on all this, Bart. I'm obviously not a sophisticated Linux or dosemu user. That said, I now have 1.1.5 working with xdosemu. But I find that a certain setting that allows one of my apps to work under 1.0.2.1 is missing from dosemu.conf. That's the $_kbint setting. I had to set that to off in 1.0.2.1 to allow a particular app to work properly. I think I can work around this, but was wondering if this setting is going to return in a future version of dosemu.conf.

DOSEMU always had a bit of a reputation that it was difficult to set up and I'm trying to make that a little easier -- so this kind of feedback always helps (to see where the rough edges are).

keybint is always "on" now. It should be, because it is also always on in a real mode PC too.
