I have read that; just I think I wasn't clear enough. My question is
that it is enough to write a real-mode handler, or (if my program
spend much time in protected mode), I need to write a protected-mode
handler too for the best performance?

Thanks:
Circum

PS: It just came to my mind... While the interrupts are disabled (I
suppose I need to disable it in a hardware irq-handler), other
hardware interrupts are lost? (E.g., data coming from kbd/serial is
lost?)
