hi,

i tried out the directfb savage driver and got it working after a while. i 
have a prosavage twister chipset which was unsupported by the directfb 
savage driver. i had a look at the xfree86 sources and saw that the twister 
series had the same accleration as the savage 4 series so i just changed 
the case statements and removed a few calls to old_streams stuff to make 
things compile and the driver seems to work on the twister chipset. i ran 
df_dok and the blit's were definitely faster :)

i have a few questions though:

1. when you first wrote the directfb savage driver, what did you base it on 
? did you have hardware information or did you derive it off xfree86 ? if 
you derived from xfree86 which version was it as there are some differences 
between the directfb savage driver and the xfree86 4.2 savage driver.

2. i don't know anything about the streams stuff, can you give me a pointer 
to some information ?

i will send patches in once i get stuff going.

cheers,

alex
