just a guess but perhaps
	vgahiqvideo +cur
does not appear in your kernel's configuration file

I am trying to boot a recently downloaded plan9 boot image on a
Toshiba 430CDS laptop.  It has a CT65550 video controller, so I added
the following line to vgadb:
0xE4090="TOSHIBA"
to the hiqvideo entry.  The monitor entry in plan9.ini is set to lcd.
I get the subject error message during the boot phase, then it drops
to the terminal:
...
aux/vga -vip 800x600x8
aux/vga: hiqvideo: not found
sleep 2
aux/vga -l 800x600x8
aux/vga: hiqvideo: not found
...
I've looked through the vga and vgadb man pages, but still don't
understand what it is that's not being found.
