Ok. The problem was compiling Cairo with "--disabled-shared" option. I removed that, re-configure and rebuild cairo followed by pango and it works!
But this means that pango cannot support static linking? With that hurdle behind me, the next problem is getting /dev/fb0 to actually work. I had re-compiled the kernel with framebuffer support but fbset -i complains that: # fbset -i open /dev/fb0: No such device I did find instruction to append parameters to the kernel but those are for lilo; Most distribution now use grub. Any idea how to get grub to add the kernel parameters? I tried: kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-37.0.1.EL-fb ro root=LABEL=/ hdb=ide-scsi VGA=ask but that did not prompt me to select a mode.
