I want to find out the physical address of a block of memory allocated
with dpmi services under DJGPP201. I expect that I might need to play
with the LDT using assembly language - has anybody got any hints/code
lying around?

This is my sequence of calls ...
__dpmi_allocate_memory
then ... allocate descriptor, set_base, set_limit
__dpmi_lock_linear_region

 ..... and I want to get the physical address of the block here via the
selector and/or the linear address.


The block is *not* DOS memory - always above 1MB. I am using DJGPP 2.01
and CWSDPMI.

Thanks for any help.
