There was a report of the recent X.org update breaking the S3 savage chip in early April. One remedy is to fall back to the vesa driver, by removing xorg-x11-drv-savage and removing or adapting Xorg.conf. The same happened to the nv driver with at least one chip. -- Stephan Wiesand DESY -DV- Platanenenallee 6 15738 Zeuthen, Germany
