Mr. Sandmann:

Bring me a dream. :-)

I brought some DJGPP-built programs to my friend's
Linux PC and tried them under FreeDOS on DOSEMU.
They wouldn't run, even though I also brought along and
unzipped CWSDPMI.

Error message when I started my program:
66
Protected mode not accessible
Protected mode not accessible
Load error: no DPMI; get csdpmi*b.zip
99
I looked in cwsdpmi.doc:
66
"Protected mode not accessible."

This message should only be displayed if running CWSDPMI in a protected
environment with no access to protected mode.  In this case, DPMI should
already be available and CWSDPMI would not be needed.  I would like to
know if you see this message and DPMI is not available!

Ideas?
