i've been using dosemu for years, from what I understand, there has been a
problem with FC5 and dosemu, thet the development team was working on.
Perhaps the dosemu list may be able to provide more info on that, there
may be a fix already.

I have a satellite tracking program I am running from an X session using
xdosemu.
When attempting to run "xdosemu" from user account I get:
"Illegal instruction"
Heres the odd part. if I type xdosemu 3-4 times in succession (get "Illegal
instruction" each time) it will finally start in a terminal window. After
that all is well, works perfectly in running the dos program I want.
Has anyone experienced this or am I missing something in how to start up
dosemu? Dont find anything in /var/log/messages that relates to this.
Im running FC5 with 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 kernel. dosemu came from yum repo
(dosemu-1.3.3-2.fc5).
