You do not need it. That function returns the pointer to the current PM
interrupt. These are in the LINT or something like that (the register for
the interupt table in PM). Anyway, you cannot call this address from DJGPP
since it does not support far pointers.

To set up video mode, just use the real mode interrupt function - set up
speed is kind of irrelevent to most functions. Later you can use _farpokeb
to write to video memory.
