You did not link it with libvgagl statically. Either you gave the wrong
linker switch, or the static library (libvgagl.a) is not available.

That's how dynamic linking work. libvgagl.so.1 should be a symbolic link
to libvgagl.so.1.4.2. Usuall, ldconfig makes those links.

This problem should be investigated by running vgatest.
