Re: MWAVE and dosemu on Linux

[Alex Judd <ajudd@quantime.co.uk>]

OK lets try reading a little more closely before replying shall I?

You can use the soundblaster emulation under linux by booting linux from
DOS, using 'loadlin' after doing the 'mwgames on'  Use the SB16 drivers.

The modem doesn't work this way, it seems to need DOS level support.  I
haven't tried using dosemu, but it might work if you tinker with the IO
permission map.

Tell me if you manage to get it to work!
