Actually I suggested on private email to use GGI. GGI can work on top of VGL or Linux's framebuffer, and when KGI becomes available it will work fine.

Hmm, someone said earlier on in this thread, that FreeBSD does not have a framebuffer device; if so:

1) What is the FB_INSTALL_CDEV kernel option for? 2) What is the purpose of <sys/fbio.h>?

Clarification will be appreciated. Cheers.
