Perhaps someone can explain something for me.  I have an Oak/67 SVGA card 
w/1mb.  When I use the vgamode.exe program which came with it to switch to 
anything higher than 80x43 (namely, 80x60, 123x*), the cursor is always one 
character to the left of the _true_ location.  Is there any way to remedy 
this?  Also, programs which use standard VGA 80x50 mode (text) don't induce 
this problem.  It's only when I use the supplied vgamode utility.  Thanks 
for any insight.
