Vesa.InitVesa() return the linear frame buffer address for the vesa card.
Maybe that's my error, but sometime it give it right(always on same puter)
and sometime when I add other thin it goes all wrong.

One thing that is strange is if I declare Buffer in my main, it work, if I
declare as global, and I don't use it any other place then my main, it
doesn't work.
