You did include my ST-RAM pool reserve patch, that might have fixed=20
problems with video modes taking more than the minimum amount of RAM fo=

the screen buffer. Hence no need to stick to vga2.

There may well have been bugs in that code - I'm sure I have seen=20
incorrect overtype behavior with the sthigh mode myself. Not sure what=20
kernel version that happened on.

I'll give it a test on the emulator.
