Wow, that video looks pretty great flipping through a little Digital Man. I wish to hell I saw that crap three days eariler. Hahaha.

I had to reply to myself. Sitting here stunned that just seven days ago DM detailed everything and I was reading ten year old web pages just trying to get
to this point (not the sync wiki, that's no knock on that, more on linux side).
I told my wife I
was just reading through the announcements and there's a damn 1 hour how to video DM literally just posted. haha.

linux-dosemu is easy once one realizes that it is separate from their user's dosemu... when they realize that, they should realize they can copy their fossil driver to /sbbs/ctrl/.dosemu/c_drive and then just modify the autoexec.bat and config.sys in the
c_drive there... when that's done, /sbbs/ctrl/emusetup.bat isn't needed ;)

i (still) need to write a page somewhere about this... just not sure where without farkling with existing ones... but yeah, there's no need for so much hoop jumping as there has been in the past...

Well that's the step I'm currently hung up on too, so looking forward to that ha! Just funny your video coinceided with me setting up on Ubuntu for the first time ever. I was surprised by the date of posting.

What if you don't have a /sbbs/ctrl/.dosemu?
Can you make one? I know I did dosemu=1 when I setup SBBS, but what you have there isn't in my /sbbs/ctrl.

Grease> What if you don't have a /sbbs/ctrl/.dosemu?

you will/should after the first time you attempt to run dosemu from sbbs... that's an important step along with one or two others setting a couple of options in dosemu's config and possibly one or two in the system...

Grease> Can you make one?

i suppose you could but it is better to let dosemu handle the initial config and directory creation...

Grease> I know I did dosemu=1 when I setup SBBS,

that just sets sbbs up to use dosemu and opens the proper code path... nothing more...

Grease> but what you have there isn't in my /sbbs/ctrl.

let me see if i can get some time to spin up a virtual machine, install sbbs on
a clean barebones setup with dosemu, and get a wiki page or document written...
once the initial steps are done, it all just works but you have to do some things in a certain
way...

deity knows i've 'locked' my system several times trying to do something in/with dosemu and i've done something wrong... worst is when i forget that i'm
ssh'd in and try to use my dosemu command prompt from sbbs to run some door setup/config program... i
usually have to terminate the session and use another terminal to telnet in and
go that route instead... i'm not sure if it is because my ssh terminal window is 266x70 or if it is because i'm using ssh but whatever it is, it stops me cold and the session
simply stops responding...

That's the part I didn't know. Okay, you have to do one first.

That would be fabulous! All I can find is for older versions. Or, it's
like grandma's recipes. It's mostly there, but one little thing that
makes the difference is left out.

I hate when that happens....:(
