First, my thanks to you all and the Dox Box Team.

I am running Dox Box in SuSe Linux, and want to run it full screen. Could someone please tell me how and/or how to come accross the information myself. I have seen many postings regarding readme files I can't find. So if there is somewhere I should research, for next time, please let me know and my apoligies for the interruption.

learn how to use linux 😀
any way many ways
alt-enter
start dosbox with -fullscreen
in the configfile specify it

anyway documentation will probably be somewhere
like in
/usr/share/dosbox
or /usr/share/doc/dosbox
or /usr/doc/dosbox
or some variant with
/usr/local
depending on your distribution
If you can't find it blame suse 😀

I had made a mistake. I was actually using a Dos Emulator which comes with SuSE. I thought that I had installed DosBox but was actually unsuccessful. Thank you for your reply. In order to learn about DosBox from the readme files, I need to install it, but I failed. The other effect was that the Dos Emulator said something about increasing my Linux desktop to 24 lines. Will that happen with DosBox. How do I install it in the first place. Maybe then I won't have to worry about the full screen issue.

I agree. Some people are better off with Windows. 😁
