Odd.  Maybe it's because you haven't defined native VGA support for
your VGA card.  I have a line like this in my /etc/dosemu.conf in the
VIDEO section:

	video { vga  console  graphics  chipset s3  memsize 1024 }

which tells DosEmu to use direct video to my S3 card.  Modify
according to taste and existing hardware.
