Bug Description
Binary package hint: dosemu
I have been using dosemu on Kubuntu 9.10 with Borland compiler (TLINK) for a long time without problems but after upgrading to version 10.10 I cannot run TLINK any more and I'm getting error:
ERROR: general protection at 0x301ff: 0
This seems to be related to the dosemu 1.4.0.1 package (actually 1.4.0+svn.1999-2) in Ubuntu 10.10, since the old version of dosemu (1.4.0.0) run from a backup of the 9.10 system is also working on 10.10.
I couldn't find any hints on the Internet or anyone having the same problem. Can anyone please help me?
The only strange thing I noticed as a difference between the two versions of dosemu is the extra line "CONF: not enough privilege to define config variable c_user" on the non-working 1.4.0.1. But I have no idea what it means.
The boot.log output from dosemu 1.4.0.1 is attached.

So many people have the same problem
