I am very new to pmode. I am wondering if there is a simple way to set
the graphics mode in protected mode without switching back to real

Yes, the video BIOS works just fine in v86 mode. Many Windows drivers, and
some Linux X drivers, actually call into the video BIOS in v86 mode in
order to set the mode.
