Hmm - where is that lying around ? Maybe it's a problem with the application.
Is it a binary or source.

O.K. - no errors or warnings on that ?

O.K. - you might want to add it to /etc/ld.so.conf in the long run, but ...

That sounds like an application problem ...

That's strange and should be investigated. What driver are you using ?

That sounds much like SVGAlib. Is your SVGAlib working normally ?
Do you have an X server handy to run the applications on ?
LibGGI will display on about anything it can find.
What graphics card do you have ? Maybe it is supported by fbcon or kgicon ...
That would spare you the typical SVGAlib nightmares ...

The docs should be in the snapshot you have. try subdir lib/libggi/doc.
