Hello,

I just build the 0.72 Version on my linux (Ubuntu) system and it seems to run correctly. But using

config -writeconf dosbox.conf

failed. I always get the message "can't open file dosbox.conf".
I also tried out different filenames, I mounted the home directory and tried to write the file there. Also using a comlete path instead of only a filname did not work.
Does anyone know, what I did wrong?

Thanks

config -writeconf /tmp/dosbox.conf
