I've not tried OpenSUSE. Perhaps it was their one-time recommendation of at least 1 GB of RAM that put me off, dunno. Though I'm not very savvy on Linux either. These days, for simplicity, I just run PuppyLinux (actually, triple boot), which seems to work fine for my weird uses. Dunno about DOSEMU in OpenSUSE, I heard one guy from DJGPP (Juan) say that it didn't work very well for him there. Fedora I've only barely used, and even its installer these days needs 700+ MB of RAM, ugh. Like I said, for dumb reasons they don't include DOSEMU by default. So you have to download it elsewhere, e.g. RPMfind. (I think the last time I tried was when I very very briefly tested DOSEMU x86-64 for the Hexen2 DJGPP port, which worked fine except for no sound, oddly enough.) In my limited use in the past, these settings sometimes helped, just FYI: su -c 'sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=0' su -c 'sesetbool -P mmap_low_allowed 1' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
