OK, thank you very much.
After looking after the code, I wrote this:
void
actualizar_cursor ()
{
unsigned int pos = (consola.y*80)+consola.x;
outb_p(0x3d4,0xE);
outb_p(0x3d5,(unsigned char)((pos >> 8))&0xff);
outb_p(0x3d4,0xF);
outb_p(0x03d5,(unsigned char)(pos & 0xff));
}
The value of pos is correct? (row*80)+column?
Thank you very much!
