Sorry, this must be quite annoying, but all the literature I've read on how
to write a workaround to make the mouse work under a vesa mode is either
written in gobbledigook (ie nonsensensical!) or just plain doesn't make
sense. If anyone can explain this in some variety of English, I would be
really grateful. I don't want to display the mouse - I just want it to return
a number between 0 and 640 in the horizontal, and 0-480 vertically. Why do
all the most common things have to be the most obscure to program??? Thanks,
