The best way to do this would be to hook interrupt 9 and make use of
the scancodes. Check the DJGPP FAQ on how to install an interrupt
handler.

If you aren't familiar with interrupt handling and want to use
bioskey(), you need to use the _bios_keybrd(_KEYBRD_READ) to get them
out of the keyboard buffer.
