I have a new PC here that has some form of S3 Savage video onboard, which isn't supported by XFree86 3.3.6, but apparently is supported under version 4. I am running Debian 2.2r3 (potato), which only supports XFree86 3.3.6 -- it seems that XFree86 4 is in testing/unstable. Has anyone tried running potato with XFree86 4 from testing and what gotchas are there? Alternatively, am I better off just upgrading to testing/unstable?
XF86Setup has four flavors of S3 Savage4 on the Card list, and one of them worked for me. I had more problems adjusting the modelines for my SyncMaster 15GLi than selecting the Video Card. If you want, I can send you my XF86Config, but I think you can make it if you run XF86Config. No need to upgrade do 4.0.
Good luck! -Vítor ______________________ Vítor Estêvão Silva Souza vitor.souza@terra.com.br
