Testing gateway in automatic mode. Got it running using Xvfb as a dummy
X server for DOSBox. As a bonus, it's much faster to load. :)

You piqued my interest when you mentioned using DOSBox to do this. I've got some of the tweaked builds available with networking & such. Not looking for exact directions...but is there a way you can explain how
you were able to do this using DOSBox?

A combination of using Xvfb to run DOSBox under and the autoexec within DOSBox to run the gateway. Having some reliability issues, but it sorts works. :)

BTW...hope you & the rest of you like Andrew are doing okay with all
the news I'm hearing out of Ottawa on the CBC about the flair ups.

Hmm, there's a planet in between. :P
