dear all,
i don't know how people feel about me asking this question on this list,
but i really wouldn't know who else to ask. when i try to run the
svgalib version of doom on my netbsd-1.1-alpha system (from
munitions.wasabi.com) it just dies with a message saying:
mouse_init() failed
and then it screws up my keyboard, totally disarranging the keys making
it unable to type (it just prints a bunch of control characters and stuff
instead of the regular key output). this never happened when i tried
sdoom under linux, so it must be a problem with the emulation?
i only ask because it mentioned in an earlier mail that the svgalib
version of doom now runs under netbsd with linux compatibility compiled in.
ingat ka,
