The device node is created by XFree86 when it looks for the DRM. Make sure that the directory /dev/dri exists and that the Xserver has permission to create new device nodes in it. The Xserver runs as root, so that should not be a problem, but I vaguely remember a report about /dev/dri directory permission problems.
One more thing, there is another list of PCI IDs in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel/savage.h. You may have to add the savage4 PCI ID there.
Yes, I just changed savage.h and it worked just fine, added this line:
{0x533, 0x8a22, 0, "Savage4"}
Where 0x8a22 is my chipID. After that glxinfo reported that direct render was working but i ran glxgears and i couldn't see anything, but it also reported about 500 FPS, i could only see some white and black colors on glxgears window.

Does the workaround 'Option "UseBios" "no"' help?
"UserBios" option didn't help, but i tried 'Option "DisableTile" "On"' and worked just fine.
Hmm, from the feedback I got so far it seems like there will be more work required to get the Xserver side going before people can start testing the 3D driver. :-/
