a load of stuff in here, including a directory called savage with 3 files: savagefb_accel.ko, savagefb-ic2.ko and savagefb.ko
and
/usr/X11/lib/modules/drivers/
again a load of files, including one called savage_drv.o
I also have a /usr/X11/lib/modules/dri/ directory that contains all the dri drivers except the one I need!
I think I need to start looking in xorg log files...

Paul, I don't want to sound like the pessimist here, but I'm guessing you are not going to have any luck in getting the dri working on that chipset. I recently put together a system that had the Savage graphics on it. After doing a lot of research, I found that it was just not going to happen! 2d is fine and Sax2 works well to get you there, but for some reason, nobody has bothered to take it further. Now you might find a 3rd party graphics developer's files better able to help, if you just gotta have 3d, but I think that is going to be the only way. Sorry to add more bad news to your efforts. end of line Lee
