In fact, I was trying to use the same PTE as something else, and ended
up not doing the right thing, so it was a bug in my code.
And to answer my own question, you just make the virtual address point
to the VGA memory, and all works just as you'd expect. It just doesn't
work when the page-tables aren't set up correctly! Doh!
