I use int 10h to set the video mode like this:

union REGS regs;
regs.w.ax=mode;
int386(0x10,&regs,&regs);

That works fine. (I know this because when I use printf, the letters are
really big)
But I can't get a pixel on the screen.  I've tried
unsigned char *scr=0xa000;
with many different amounts of 0s after the a.  But I always get a GPF. 
How can I write to the screen.  (Any suggestions for setting the mode
without bios would also be appreciated)
