When using a real IBM CGA card and monitor as my console under
SCO Xenix 386v2.3.2, I get no 'screen snow' doing normal Xenix
type things. However, under VP/ix I get enoguh 'screen snow' on
every screen update to make it annoying. It is almost as if 
display page changes are taking place. The 'snow' is almost
always a solid square and diamond in columns flickering on the
screen.

I've looked through the obvious sections of the VP/ix and XENIX
manuals to no avail. Anyone out there every come across this problem and
fix it?
