FreeBSD doesn't use interrupt vectors for that sort of thing; it's not DOS. You should always use the system calls for manipulating shared resources. It is possible to call the video BIOS under certain circumstances from a user process, but this is done through a v86 monitor, whilst in v86 mode; but generally, you should use the syscons(4) driver or Xlib if you wish to use graphics. The Developer's Handbook covers most of these topics.
