Normal video, visual bell not enabled (through the xterm menu).
I called vi and pressed cursor up. The screen flashed. Then I enabled reverse video and again called vi. Pressed cursor up and the screen went back to normal video (also in xterm's menu). Black writing on white background. Really strange. Fortunately I don't use vi :-) The only command I know is <ESC>:q! just I case some app calls vi.
