Yes, VirtualBox graphic card indeed is VESA compliant. The whole problem is 
about Windows 3.11 not supporting VESA :)
If there was somewhere a Win 3.11 graphic driver designed to work with VESA 
cards, that would definitely solve my issue... Unfortunately, so far, I haven't 
found any, and I am trying to believe that such driver simply doesn't exist... 
:-/
Of course there is the Japheth's SVGA patch 
(http://www.japheth.de/dwnload1.html), which is a very nice piece of work, but 
it has a big issue when it comes to recover the screen from a DOS-based session 
(the screen becomes garbled), and it doesn't work anymore when network support 
is activated in Windows 3.11...

Mateusz
