<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; ">Thanks for the background info. What I asked about, however, is which directory to put the dosbox.conf file. <DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>DosBox was installed automatically by Synaptec (I'm using PCLInuxOS) and there seem to be pieces of it all over the machine in various directories. I didn't find a DosBox directory. On a mac, the proper location for DosBox is in a users preferences folder. I tried to find something corresponding in Linux, even tried putting it in various places, guessing. Nothing's worked. So...where do I put the conf file?</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>And since you brought it up, what is the ~/.dosboxrc file? Never heard of it in my searching the DosBox forums.
