OK, somebody has to know the answer here...I start my program, it opens up on
a full screen OS/2 session. No problem so far. It creates a thread that turns
on the mouse cursor and get events in a loop. No problem here, the cursor
appears and I can move it around and such. My program switches to graphics
mode 320x200x256 and suddenly the mouse is disabled. Not just the cursor, but
everything. I had put into my code some printf's to print the current position
of the cursor, as soon as it is in graphics mode, there are no more printf's.

I have tried initializing the mouse thread after I switched into graphics mode
to no avail.

I really need to get the stats on the mouse while I am in the graphics mode.
I don't need the cursor, but I do need everything else, like button status and
position of course.

Any help is appreciated.
Keith
