## Serial port settings

$_com1 = "/dev/ttyS0"

# Lock directory (e.g. default: "/var/lock")

# $_ttylocks = "/var/lock"

Where do you want to have the lock? To /var/lock? Delete the #. Do you have write permission for that directory?
Or

Put it to
$_ttylocks = "$HOME/dosemu"

Certainly you have write permission there.

Claudia,

Thanks for your reply

The lock seems to be working properly and I do have write permissions to /var/lock (its set to 777). Just for testing I did un-comment $_ttylocks = "/var/lock" but that made no difference. I can start xdosemu and get the DOS prompt, just as soon as I start my app (ProcomPlus) my system freezes, keyboard and mouse are locked and a hard boot is required to get things back. Any other suggestions?

Thanks again,
Rick Knight
