Freemacs dired

I've just downloaded the version of Freemacs available on Simtel.  It looks
like a nice Emacs, but I can't get dired to work the way I expect.  ``n''
and ``p'' seem to skip 5 or 6 directory entries at a time and the editor
beeps at me when trying to read a file with ``f'' or ``e''.  The normal
find-file ``^X^F'' mechanism works on those same files.

Does anyone have any ideas?  I'm running DOS 5.0 on a PS/2 model 80.
Thanks!
