Describe the bug

Run up dosbox-x under debian bookworm linux vm under chromeos v121. Select drive menu item, then try to mouint a folder as drive c. Instead of the file manager selector one gets a small dialog "tiny file dialogs" and one cannot select a folder. Tried ./build and ./build-debug-sdl2. Note: another app Joyce, a PCW emulator, which uses SDL works fine. Not tested on other chrome versions

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

1 Dosbox-x 2 select DRIVE 3 select C 4 Select Mount folder as Hard Drive 5 "Tiny File Dialogs"

Expected behavior

I would expect a file manager file and folder selector to appear

I see no flaws on ArchLinux, however, I updated tinyfiledialogs to the latest to date. There was a similar bug here ( #3873). In the above issue, it is explained that how dialogs are displayed in Linux. Installing alternative software to display dialogs might work, maybe not. If the update doesn't work for you. you may want to report this to the author of the library.
