I need help with a AGP video card and XFree 86 Server.

I´ve got an AGP Creative Labs Savage 4 and looking at the Creative web
pages, I got the XFree86 server from there.
I renamed it to XF86_S3, because SaX didn´t find it. Well, now it works, but
speed it´s not very normal.
Just "printing" the normal initial screen takes between 6 and 10 minutes.
Starting KDE it´s really impossible for that same reason.

I think it´s an AGP problem, but in XFree86 said that AGP cards are
supported just like the PCI ones.

Before buying this video card, i tried another one from S3, an S3 Trio3D
(86c368), and i got the same trouble. It was an AGP card too.

Are there some options in Kernel to support AGP hardware I haven´t seen? any
other solution?.

Thanks.
