Good one. I'll try that and post the results here.

Here are some hints on how to build the VIA/S3 Savage driver. You need to make a couple of changes to the source.

Hi everyone, I downloaded the source code here a couple hours ago and I was actually able to get it to compile and work, DRI and everything! I'm running gentoo here.
Here are some hints/notes in case anyone else is trying to compile it: 1. Watch out for a few typos in the readme.txt file. 2. You have to download the xfree source code first (kind of obvious). 3. It has to be xfree86 4.2.0, not 4.3.0. 4. Before building the 2D drivers (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/savage) you need to run dos2unix on a few of the source files, or gcc will complain with a ton of warnings AND errors (I'm using gcc 2.95.3) 5. Don't forget to add this section to your XF86Config: Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSection 6. I had to edit the file xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os- support/linux/drm/kernel/savage_drv.c and force it to use the do_munmap function that only takes 2 parameters not 3 (by commenting out #ifdef). 7. I had to edit about 4 files in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os- support/linux/drm/kernel and change pte_offset to pte_offset_kernel to get rid of insmod unresolved symbol error.
Well, I hope this helps anyone else trying to compile this thing.
