I've been testing on my Milan, running MagiC and a screen resolution of 1600x1200x64k on the 3D Rage IIC graphics card. Without the SDL_VIDEODRIVER=gem setting, there's an error message "Couldn't set display mode: Can not allocate 500 KB for buffer 0"
With that variable set, the system crashes with "*** SPEICHERBLOCK DURCH BENUTZERPROGRAMM ZERSTÖRT:" (error message from MagiC, memory protection error) and has to be reset.
The same machine running FreeMiNT 1-16 and XaAES 0.998 without the env variable yields the same "display mode" error. With the variable set, it runs if i change into the program directory when started from a shell. Otherwise, there's an error "Failed to load a tile set, code 1". That's with 1280x1024x65k. It is playable, but yet again needs long clicks (1s+) to select a tile.
