For those people that want to use Openoffice with the S3 Savage chip and XFree 4.1, you need to enable a workaround or use this updated driver. Otherwise, your X server will die a long slow death.

XFree86 4.1 and 4.2 contain an outdated Savage driver that causes problems on some Thinkpad laptops. I have created a Debian package of the newest version from the author's home page at http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html You can download the package from http://people.debian.org/~sgybas/savage/. It diverts the module >from xserver-xfree86 so it won't get overwritten by XFree86 updates and removes the diversion when the package is removed. I will not upload this package to the Debian FTP archive, it was just created to help a colleague doing his presentations with his laptop and to put it on the Knoppix CD. -- Stefan Gybas ----- End forwarded message ----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
