I was thinking about the ways to access graphics video memory and it hit 
me that it the video memory could be paged so that it is part of the data 
segment then it can be accessed with a near pointer and still keep memory 
protection.

I have not tried any of the DPMI services in DJGPP so I don't know how 
easy or hard this would be, or if it is possible at all, so I am 
suggesting it here.  Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, how 
to do it?

Newbs.
