Playing daisy in Linux?

[Hart Larry]

Well Jos-and-Will, I created a dir called daisy where I put these files.  There 
are no mp3s.  But if I type
daisy-player /home/chime/daisy
my cursor gets shove to maybe line3  and I get lots of lib386 messages  and I 
must clear my screen with a reset.
Here are the files in this directory

Back again live:  Must I launch 1 of these specificly.   This is daisy-player 
7.0.4
OK, just tried running as root, no improvement, still hear messages about 
memory map  heep and gnu.
It would obviously be quite messy if I were to paste in that output.
Thanks so much in advance
