John Linn, I believe your issue has been fixed meanwhile. If not, make sure you have enabled Recommended Updates (maverick-updates) or upgrade to natty. For everybody, if there are any remaining issues with the savage cards, make sure you file bugs using "ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-savage". --

I believe I have the same bug. I have a fresh install of lubuntu 10.10 on an ancient Pentium II PC with an old Diamond Stealth III s540 graphics card. I am seeing symptoms similar to #5 above. description: CPU product: Pentium II (Deschutes) vendor: Intel Corp.

Try upgrading to the experimental version of the driver. You can find it at Debian's website. OpenGL is slow, but at least works unlike the current version, and the console isn't jumbled. Go to and download the latest DEB b

Thanks for your attention, but as I need the machines for some kind of production work, I cannot revert them to the buggy state currently, as I had to fix and modify a lot: mainline kernel, xservers from lucid, and a self-compiled savage xserver from the lucid sources as I had to do a bugfix in the
