--- Comment #6 from Tormod Volden <bugzi11.fdo.tormod at xoxy.net> ---
I have committed a couple of fixes to the savage driver repository. One problem
was that the driver, even when built for an xserver without XAA support, would
internally default to XAA instead of EXA nonetheless. Secondly there was an EXA
function that needed an update for recent xservers.

This works well for me. The only issue I see now is that console switching does
not work, the text consoles are unusable. But I am not sure this is
savage-specific since for instance the vesa driver locks up the machine
completely if I try to switch consoles.
