I have Minix 1.2 running on a 386 with a VGA monitor. Periodically, my
screen will go black from some line of the output down.  When this line
of the output scrolls off the screen, the lines below it reappear.  

I have heard rumors of an "EGA bug."  Does anyone remember far back enough
to tell me if this is that bug, and what the fix is?
