The problem is caused because the xxa module is not found and, in turn, DRI support cannot be enabled. In the meantime, I have had no other choice than using vesa driver until the issue is sorted out. I'm using ArchLinux and the maintainer of the package of this driver has told me to contact you to find a solution. Here you can find: - The content of my Xorg.0.log file: http://pastebin.com/qdp7datT - The thread open to discuss the problem in ArchLinux https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/34527 - And the code to build the package:https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk?h=packages/xf86-video-savage Any help to solve this issue would be really appreciated. Best regards, Carlos.

This broke in xserver 1.13 and was partly fixed in 1.14. Try Option "AccelMethod" "EXA". A workaround is to turn off acceleration with Option "DisableTile".

This T22 model (and many other thinkpads from that era) use the "S3 Savage IX8" chipsets.
