   I am a little confused on how to write a pixel to a VGA monitor
(console) under Sys V/386 R.3.2.1. That is, I can switch to the graphics
VGA mode using an ioctl (SW_VGA640x480E), but I don't know how to
write to display memory. Any help would be *highly* appreciated.
Please let me know if there are any books discussing graphics
programming under Sys V/386. All books which I have seen so far
tend to refer only to DOS/Microsoft C.
