unsigned char frames[64000][30];

Shouldn't the above piece of code work? I was hoping that in protected mode
it would be as easy as this.

Also, take a look at the following procedure. What symbol do I need to 
use in front of the mode variable to get GCC to recognize it? I hope 
this is possible... someone sent me a code fragment using %ebp to do it.

void videomode(int mode)
	{
 	asm("movl mode, %eax
             int $0x10
            ");
	}

I would appreciate it if someone could point me to the specific location 
of a document that describes all of GCC's inline assembly syntax... I've 
spent the past week trying to find this information on the net.
