John,
are you saying that with my Savage 3D to turn off acceleration in the
XF86Config file will get the card to work? I have tried the framebuffer
device and it works (though a little choppy and unaccelerated) at least I can
use my Lappie for Linux :) I am happy yo give this a try if you think it will
work.
Thanks,
Wayne
