XEnix seems to be sensitive to Hercules clones. The only time I have ever
seen any graphics software running on SCO Xenix was at Uniforum. When I
asked them how they did it (since I couldn't get my clone to do squat
either -- this was VP/ix), they said "use a Hercules card". I gave up and
got a MultiSync GS (mono) monitor, with which I can run CGA, EGA, and VGA
software with no problems, and am now waiting for the X-Windows on VGA
from SCO so I can buy a VGA board...
