Here it is:
X: X_setmode: video_mode 0x3 (TEXT), size 80 x 25 (720 x 400 pixel)
X: X_setmode: video_mode 0x6 (GRAPH), size 80 x 25 (640 x 200 pixel)
X: X_setmode: video_mode 0x10 (GRAPH), size 80 x 25 (640 x 350 pixel)
X: X_setmode: video_mode 0x12 (GRAPH), size 80 x 30 (640 x 480 pixel)
X: X_setmode: video_mode 0x3 (TEXT), size 80 x 25 (720 x 400 pixel)
so 0x12 is presumably what I can see as "garbage"; I am still able to
leave the program - returning from word 5.0 to dos restores 0x3.
Thank you a lot for your help.
Cheers, Juergen.
