Then create a log of video events (-D9+v option to dosemu) and see what's going wrong. And upgrade your dosemu: something suggests me that you are using one of those 1.0.x versions, hence the problems. And what version of util-linux package do you have? There were a lot of broken versions, where /bin/login doesn't set a console ownership for the login shell process. No graphics also in that case.
