subject: DPMI, VESA 2.0 and LFB

I tried to use the Linear Frame buffer on my S3 Virge Card using
VESA 2.0 in protected mode. Now, i am not sure that it is possible.
i used unit NewFrontier (v 6.0) with BP7 but the function 800 of DPMI
is not supported by the borland implementation.
i don't know how to create a selector with physical address base of
F8000000 and a size of 4M.
Anyone has some ideas ?
