For function 09H - Set/Get Palette Data the real mode, or 16 bit
version, uses ES:DI to point to the table of palette values.  ES
obviously being for the table's segment, and DI for its offset.
In the protected mode, or 32 bit version, it uses ES:EDI.  
Since this is the protected mode version, and since we're dealing with
EDI instead of just DI, that would mean that ES is the selector, in
this case _my_ds() and EDI would be the offset, or, for example, if
the variable was Palette_Table, then EDI would be &Palette_Table. 
Right?  Thanks.
