Does Allegro work under OpenDOS?
Yes, but with some caveats. If you are using the OpenDOS version of EMM386, you must disable their DPMI implementation (specify DPMI=OFF on the EMM386.EXE device line in your config.sys). You should also make sure the PIC=OFF flag is set, but this is the default so it won’t be a problem unless you have specifically enabled it.
