	Does anyone know how to tell the mouse driver that the card is
in graphics mode instead of text mode.  On a CGA, the driver
intercepts bios video calls and thus usually knows what mode the
screen is in.  There is no bios support for the Hercules card so this
method won't work with it.  Neverless, Microsoft's documentation
claims that the mouse software works with a Hercules card in graphics
mode.  Thanks,
