When running Dosbox please remember that out of the box it will not run 
on and FC4 or 5 kernel past 2108.  This may be due to some feature of SE 
Linux but it doesn't run even with SE shut off on later kernels.  Some 
of the later kernels also seem to cause Wine to do strange things in the 
video.  I haven't reported a problem because I haven't quite been able 
to figure out what is wrong.
