Hi Netters,

I have a question regarding graphical mouse programming in 640x480 or 800x600
SVGA mode.
In VGA mode, my program can show and manipulate the mouse cursor just fine.
When i switch over to SVGA mode, the mouse cursor is not visible any more
although the mouse driver still reports the mouse as being present.

What extra/completely different must i do to get the mouse working correctly
in SVGA mode?

If this matters: 
    I'm using INT 33h calls in a C program in combination with an 
    ATi Wonder XL video card with bus mouse.


Thanks in advance,
Henk Kotmans
