vgaon only works if you run DOSEMU as root in the console, and switches from "-c" mode to "-V" mode. Very specialistic.

First just try to run what you want in xdosemu, forget about vgaon, if that fails try 1.3.3, and only if that fails or is too slow you should worry about direct console graphics.
