Very few cards actaully use a VBL. Each driver also should provide its own
interrupt handler. Plus the "generic" vbl handler should NOT be calling
accel_cursor. Instead talking to the low level cursor handler instead. I
plan to do that next. I haven't got around to fixing that yet. I will in
the next release.
