I built svgalib-1.4.3 against uclibc and am trying to get it to run the 
demo program vgatest.  I get an error message:

"Not running in a graphics capable console and unable to find one."

Am I missing something in /dev?  Is there something I need to change in 
my kernel config?

/dev/fb0, /dev/fb, /dev/mouse, /dev/psaux, and /dev/console all exist.

CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y is set in .config
