woody with today's update):

          Support (accelerated) for the ViRGE, ViRGE/VX, ViRGE/DX,
          ViRGE/GX, ViRGE/GX2, ViRGE/MX, ViRGE/MX+, Trio3D and Trio3D/2X
          is provided by the "s3virge" driver. Support (accelerated) for
          the Savage3D, Savage3D/MV, Savage4, and Savage2000, is provided
          by the "savage" driver. Support for the other S3 chipsets has
          not yet been ported.
