0xA0000 is the address of the graphics screen.  Is that what you are 
trying to do?  If you need the text screen, use 0xB8000 instead.

The DJGPP FAQ explains all this (and in so many words) in section 18.4.  
If something there is not clear, or doesn't seem to work, please ask 
specific questions about what the FAQ tells.

You can't set `_my_ds' to anything, btw: `_my_ds' is a function, not a 
variable (also explained by the above section of the FAQ).
