RPM Binary for FC11 x86_64 (AMD)?

I am once again trying to get dosemu to work on the titles machine.  I have been able to get it to load using a couple of versions not specific to my processor, but it segfaults when I try to run a moderately sized application.

If there is a rpm binary that works with x86_64/AMD on fc11, I'd appreciate a pointer to it.

Thanks

Fred

I haven't been able to find the rpm you mention that is built for a 64 bit (x86_64) AMD cpu architecture.  I am able to use the latest stable release for Dosemu on an AMD 32 bit architecture (old machine.)  But I really need it to work on the 64 bit architecture.  I believe the primary problem is the lack of vm86 support for the stock Fedora kernel for the cpu architecture I indicated.

I did try to compile Dosemu using the source rpm, but it failed at the end of the "make" phase.  I don't have the expertise to understand why.

So any help in finding a stable binary for my architecture would ehlp.

I'm also not sure I understand when you asked about compiling 32 bit.  I do have a 32 version of dosemu that works on a 32 bit AMD cpu. But I need the problem to work on my workstation which is x86_64.

Thank you for your help.

opps, I should have listed the trunk branch.  Here are the correct commands:

svn co https://dosemu.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/dosemu/trunk dosemu cd dosemu
make

Quoted 119 lines · Frederic Herman

I executed the first command and seemed to get the whole repository. The dosemu directory contains:

/.syn
/branches
/tags
/trunk

Where do I need to cd to get to the directory to do the make?

no, the latest in SVN is the best to use now.  I know it looks misleading to see "the latest stable release" on the website, but its old now.  To get the latest, type this:

svn co https://dosemu.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/dosemu dosemu cd dosemu
make

or you can also use the RPM in rpmfusion, I plan to package for new releases of Fedora once I get a PC.

hope this helps..

I did try the 32 version, but that bombs the same way.

The boot file that I previously attached was from a run using the latest statble source on your website.  I used it to compile dosemu, and I had to
do a manual make install to get the executables and config files installed.

Is it possible that I need to do something in the config file to give the application memory to run under dosemu?  I can't remember what I finally did
in a previous version to get it to work, but it seems I did something for the memory setting.  Is there anything in the boot file that suggests what
is causing the application to bomb?

I mean using a 32 bit dosemu from your x86_64 system.  It can still run 32 bit binaries the same, even on a 64 bit kernel and CPU.  The rpm is in the rpmfusion repo for Fedora 10, and if that doesnt work for you, I would try to just download compile the latest SVN instead.
