Which version are you using, is it 0.60 unpatched?
Can you give me your command-line?

Yes, I'm using CDE, with the Vesa driver.

It happens a *lot* faster than 15 minutes, less than 5
minutes.  I get the "No RTC Timer", "No RTC Date"
message at boot, so that could be something to do with
messed up timing.

Switching back and forth a couple of times between
host and emulated machine I end up with the keyboard
keys entering control characters (^H^A^A etc) in the
emulated machine.  After a while even that stops and
the emulated machine is completely unresponsive.

Sounds like It'll be some time before I start worrying
about a lack of JVM.  Can you tell me which video
