How can I use double buffering
when the __djgpp_conventional_base is changing sometime
when using a linear frame buffer code like the one below.
BTW I use VESA 2.0 mode 0x101
with the near ptr enable (and I want to keep it that way).
I know how to create a selector but selector
seem to use far ptr and I want to keep the near ptr for speed. (It is
possible?).

  unsigned char *video;
  video = (unsigned char *)linear_address;
  video[y * Max_X + x + __djgpp_conventional_base] = couleur;
