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 <http://packages.debian.org/source/experimental/xserver-xorg-video- savage> and download the latest DEB by clicking on your architecture and then the closest mirror for the download.
