Folks,
        I am running current (looks like a snapshot done around Oct 18
or so) on a i486.  I am playing with the Linux emulation mode so I can
play doom... I have xdoom running fine (except there is no sound...
anyone got a working sndserver????).  I would like to try the svgalib
version but when I try to run it the thing bombs out when it is
starting up saying that it cannot get I/O permissions (or words to
that effect).  I have tried running the thing as root but still no go.

Oh yeah, I have RTFM for compat_linux and done the sym links suggested
there.
