This seems odd, I thought that an X11 installation would
always look the same to an application (like valgrind).
Can you install valgrind without errors?

I have no idea what this means. Maybe you could install
the lastest one, svgalib-1.9.24. If you do, and if you 
do not remove the old /etc/vga/libvga.config you will
have to edit the file manually to add a line NoHelper
to avoid having to install svgalib_helper.
