I have this program where I am trying to use vesa.  Now say that I want to get the vesa 
info,  what I have been doing is this:

struct VesaInfoBlock {
     //the regular vesa info stuff
     };

VesaInfoBlock vesainfo;


Later on, I try to get the vesa information like this:


union REGS regs;
struct SREGS sregs;

regs.w.ax = 0x4F02;
regs.w.di = (unsigned short)&vesainfo;

int386x(0x10, &regs, &regs, &sregs);


According to what I read out of the faq this should work, except that I keep getting 
SIGSEV errors.  Please help me and please hurry.
