Yes, no problem. Just remember to use ctrl-alt-<Fn> to go to
a Virtual Console (VC), and you can run any Linux application (dosemu
is a linux-application). I've got almost always WP5.1 in a dos
session.
[Note: Use ctrl-alt-F7 to switch back to X from dosemu.]

If you have X installed and you have successfully compiled dosemu
and run it successfully outside X-windows, you should be able to
run "xdos" or "dos -X" right away to bring up a dosemu
window. If this does not work, make sure:
1. Dosemu has X support compiled in (X_SUPPORT=1 in the Makefile).
2. Installed the VGA font. You can do this by running the
'xinstallvgafont' script in the dosemu-0.60 source directory:
sh xinstallvgafont
3. Set up your X key-mappings. In an xterm, type
xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = 0xff08"
xmodmap -e "keycode 107 = 0xffff"
These lines fixes the backspace and delete keys respectively.
4. Configured the X-related configuration options in your
/etc/dosemu.conf file.
Alternatively, you can run dosemu inside a color xterm,
which is not recommended because many color xterms have buggy
support for the complex text display capabilities of dosemu.
This does not require X_SUPPORT to be compiled into dosemu.
However, if you really want to do this, do the following steps:
1. Install ansi_xterm. The recommended package is available as:
tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/ALPHA/dosemu/Development/ansi-xterm-R6.tar.gz
2. Installed the VGA font. You can do this by running the
'xinstallvgafont' script in the dosemu-0.60 source directory:
sh xinstallvgafont
3. Set up your X key-mappings. In an xterm, type
xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = 0xff08"
xmodmap -e "keycode 107 = 0xffff"
These lines fixes the backspace and delete keys, respectively.
4. Configured the terminal-related (not X-related) settings in
/etc/dosemu.conf

I have xrdb log the following resources
dosxterm*Font: vga dosxterm*geometry: 80x25 dosxterm*saveLines: 25or I alias "
dosxterm" to
"term -fn vga -title dosxterm -geometry 80x25 -sl 25"
If you use the xrdb method, all you have to do is run
"xterm -name dosxterm"

Yes. I use nnansi.com under X windows. I find 25, 43 and 50
line mode work properly, however 50 line mode is difficult to use on a
1024x768 screen (unless smaller fonts are used are you use a bigger
screen. 43 line mode will resize the xterm window to use 43 lines.
