I'll have to double check, but I don't recall having any problems with
mode switching in tuxracer last time I played with it.  Steve, what
chip are you running on? bios or non-bios mode setting? it also might
be an issue with the backbuffer overwriting the front buffer. see
below.

One of these days, maybe this weekend, I'll put a quick check in the
buffer allocation code in savage_accel.c to make sure there is enough
memory for 3D in the current mode/depth.  <OT> I haven't really been
testing the trunk to much lately, as I've been messing around with
duoview support.  I've just about got it working.  I can set up the
second controller and dot clock, I just can't get it to produce a
signal. it's driving me nuts...</OT>
