There is currently no DRI driver for the
Savages for XFree86 4.x, which means that OpenGL applications are entirely simulated
in software. There was work going on at one time to add this support, by the same
fellow who did the UtahGLX driver for XFree86 3.3.6, but his e-mail address no longer
responds.
You can install the mesa and libMesa rpms this should allow you to at least start the
games but I am afraid they will be so slow and jerky that they will not be playable.
Any chance that you might could switch vid cards between the 2 systems.
