Denthor has nice trainers, but it is for a 16-bit (286), real mode
compiler.

You need to learn a bit about protected-mode, 32bit programming before
you will be doing your own graphics library in DJGPP.

There are, luckily, a lot of info sources for game programming with
DJGPP.  I'd suggest that you read the djgpp FAQ, and follow some of the
djgpp links on my web page.
