I had the same problem. After a lot of experimenting I ditched the deb version, fetched the tarball version from the dosemu site, and installed it in /usr/local rather than in $HOME as suggested in the docs. I can can now run it as root using sudo (which is necessary because I want it to use the dos partition on my hard disk). Anthony -- Anthony Campbell - running Debian GNU/Linux (Windows-free zone). For electronic books (Homeomythology and The Assassins of Alamut), skeptical essays, and over 130 book reviews, go to http://www.acampbell.org.uk/ The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatsoever that it is not utterly absurd.
