Forgive me, but I'm having difficulties in posting on SourceForge, so I decided to email the address listed on the main page..

Does dosemu work (or still work, if that's the case) without X? I see that in my build, the most currently, xdosemu just links to dosemu.. When trying to run dosemu on a Gentoo machine without X, I'm getting messages about not being able to connect to Display 0:0.. Any thoughts that could point me in the right direction would be appreciated.. Just knowing that it should work would also be beneficial. =)

How did you invoke it?

dosemu or xdosemu

dosemu is a script that parses arguments and invocation name. dosemu.bin is the dosemu binary.

If you look inside your /usr/bin/dosemu file, or wherever its installed, you will see where it choses to connect to the 'Display 0:0' or not, based on how its invoked.
