vm86plus service not available for your kernel

(This posting is to replace the thread "Getting SIMX86.exe")

I recently had to reinstall Linux on a file server. Unfortunately I forgot that I needed a 32-bit kernel and installed a 64-bit kernel instead. When trying to run version 1.2.2.0 of DOSemu I got the message that "vm86 plus service not available for your kernel".

Ivan Baldo suggested replacing the 1.2.2.0 version of DOSemu with the 1.4 version.

This did the trick. My thanks to Ivan.
