Is it possible to get a pointer to the VESA 2.0 linear frame buffer in 
DJGPP?  When I start up UNIVBE, it says something to the effect that a 
linear buffer is at 78 megabytes.  Do I just call the DPMI fuction to get 
the offset of an absolute address, and ask for 78 * 1M?  Or is there 
something more difficult to do?
