VLM drivers don't effect any graphic modes - the problem is Turbo
Pascal: loading bgi drivers is done by opening the
*.bgi file in read/WRITE (!!!) mode, even if it only reads the file.
netx does this by default in read only compatibility mode - the program
tries to read/write successfully.
vlm can do the same if you put the line READ ONLY COMPATIBILITY = ON in
the NETWARE DOS REQUESTOR section of the 
net.cfg.
Of course you can open the program directory for read/write access...
