Hey =) What im trying to do is run vm86 interrupts from a userland process
(int 10h in particular). So ive tried doing..
int switch_mode(void)
{
struct vm86_init_args vm;
/* use all interrupts */
memset(&vm, 0, sizeof(struct vm86_init_args));
return(i386_vm86(VM86_INIT, &vm));
}
to switch to vm86 mode. This works fine. Then i do the actual int 10h
void mode_13h(void)
{
__asm("xorl %eax, %eax\n"
"movl $0x13, %eax\n"
"int $0x10\n");
}
I get a bus error an int $0x10. I posted on comp.unix.programmer and was
informed that i wasnt really running in virtual mode.

What is it that i need to do to go to vm86 and execute that code?
