Trying to install DOSbox


I found a SuSE 9.0 RPM (I have 9.1), so I tried to install it, but it requires libslang.so.1. Where can I get this? I thought I had found the site, but after installing, the situation did not change.

You can download the SuSE 9.1 dosbox rpm from here:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.1/suse/i586/

You can download the 9.0 rpm for slang here:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.0/suse/i586/

"the situation did not change."

You may have to download the source for slang 1.4.9 and conpile it yourself on SuSE 9.1.

By the way, SuSE 9.1 Pro has DOSBox 6.1 on the disks, same as that download site. If you want 6.3, you need to get it installed from source... or find a compatible RPM...
