So I'll respond to part of my own post. In searching usenet, I happend upon a solution (probably not the right one) to problem #1 (running under X and using the modem). Running "xhost +<host machine name>" got dosemu running in an X-window. (Huh, didn't used to have to do that.) Also, apparently in dosemu for an ordinary user to dial out the ttyS* device has to have group write permissions.
I still have in invisible cursor, however.
