Installing dosemu

Hi,
I didn't succeed installing dosemu on my Linux machine.
I have dosemu-1.2.2.tgz tar -x, so I have dosemu-1.2.2/ dir. In that dir. I have put the dosemu-freedos-bin.tgz file (I hope that is correct). In dosemu-1.2.2/ I only did 'default things': ./configure; make; make install.
When I run dosemu (/usr/local/bin/dosemu), and give only <enter>'s ,I get

1.  HMA can't be enabled
2.  UMB's unavailable
3.  FreeCOM: XMSSwap-In: XMS copy error
4.  Cannot terminate permanent FreeCOM instance.

Bye.

Hi,

Can configure the cursor shape in DOSEMU? Now I am getting a very thin horizontal line at aprox. 1/3 from the top. It is very difficult to see.

This is my rc file (all comments striped off):

$_lfn_support=(1)
$_cpu = "80586"
$_rdtsc = (on)
$_xms = (20000)
$_hogthreshold = (3)
$_external_char_set = "iso8859-1"
$_internal_char_set = "cp850"
$_layout = "keyb-user"
$_X_updfreq = (2)
$_X_fixed_aspect = (off)

thanks,
Alain

In dosemu or xdosemu? Normally, the cursor in xdosemu is the mouse cursor of the Window manager you are using i.e. KDE. You configure this cursor in KDE. The (blinking) cursor in dosemu depends upon the font you boot your linux with. Can be configured in grub (vga=normal or vga=5) or lilo. The cursor in input fields in xdosemu depends upon the $_Xfont = "vga"
in /etc/dosemu/dosemu.conf or $HOME/.dosemurc. If you have installed vga11x19 try $_Xfont = "vga11x19".
