OK, mode 0x06 is actually a CGA 2 color mode. I�m not sure your program
actually uses it. May be it just checks a few modes and finally it takes
the best it finds.
I�ve implemented all standard VGA/CGA/whatever modes *except* the 16 color
EGA/VGA modes. So mode 6 should give you no problems.
Could you please run
xdos -DX -o log_file
and do a
grep X_setmode log_file
afterwards to see which video modes have actually been used?
Bye,
Steffen
