Well, if it works on dos and doesn't call any specific dos stuff like
graphics_mode that have some differences on linux or call directly to
int 21 it should work on linux without modifications. I'll download the
preprocessor and look for something that could be causing the problem.

I installed Corel Linux succesfully, sometime ago i tried to install it
again but had some problems with my hd so decided not to install. Don't
know what could be the problem on that one.
