dosbox-0.60 works fine, but the upgrade to dosbox-0.61 is broken.  I downgraded back to 0.60 and now it works again.

Maybe you could be more specific about what the problem is.  "It's broken" isn't
a very helpful bug report.

[Comment 2 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2004-02-06 01:30:14 UTC]

need more info in order to continue...

[Comment 3 Tamran Lengyel 2004-02-06 04:15:46 UTC]

The program segfaults when starting.  It compiles OK, but will never run.

[Comment 4 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) 2004-02-06 07:24:55 UTC]

Is there any chance you could provide more information?  Perhaps some strace output would be helpful, otherwise there isn't much we can do.

[Comment 5 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2004-02-16 19:35:49 UTC]

silly bugzilla.

[Comment 6 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2004-02-16 19:37:00 UTC]

I'm closing this since there's been no response for 10 days.  If there
are specific bugs with dosbox, feel free to open a new bug with more detail.

[Comment 7 Guido 2004-08-09 12:03:44 UTC]

It crashes with an "SDL Parachute deployed" error message. This is a common error on many archs and OSes with dosbox-061.

BTW dosbox-0.60 does compile and run on amd64, but mounting a directory does not work.
