If by void, you mean a good portion of the screen black, with perhaps a
distorted image where it;s not black, then this is what I get when I don't use
use_vesa(1).

Also, some graphics cards just can't display all modes in the Euphoria list.
You'll just have to try each.
For comparison, I found a BASIC program that changed modes, it failed on the
same modes that Euphoria couldn't use - showing that it was my graphics card,
not Euphoria that caused the problem.
