I did built libgii/libggi/svgalib4ggi rpms a week ago (under glibc1.99) ggi apps run fine under X, dga support seems broken though. Under fb they work BUT resolution changes result in invalid scan range from my monitor, if you are already in the right res ggi programs run fine. i spend a few hours playing heretic/doom in the console using both ggi and svga/ggi with no problems.
