Somewhere on internet (probably in the Simtel archives) I got a bunch
of drdos tips.  The file was something like drdostip.zip.  In it is a
bit about working with Geoworks.  

It says "Any version of GeoWorks prior to 1.2 will not work under DR
DOS 6."

That seems pretty explicit.  I recommend upgrading to GeoWorks Pro.
It interacts very well with DR DOS.
