It might take some tweaking. When SaX picks your card it sets
/var/X11R6/bin/X -> /usr/X11R6/bin/{server}, which is probably XF86_SVGA.
I, for the sake of thoroughness, would make sure that
/usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA was only a link to XFCom_Riva.

In the case that XFCom_Riva is not a separate binary from XF86_SVGA, I
would *create* a symlink called XFCom_Riva, pointing to XF86_SVGA.

Am I making any sense? :/ I know that I'm not always easy to understand,
and you just happened to mention a problem that I'm not very good at
explaining...
