I'm working on S3 Savage driver development. Below follows a slightly edited private reply [I gave to another person also interested in the S3 driver development] which should answer your questions. I haven't been doing much lately on Savage because of lack of time. Also, finishing the Mach64 is a priority (which is pratically complete, except for some nasty security holes on it). Your help is welcome, especially if you're willing to code, which is what it's really needed in this fase. If you read my original announcement (http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/680/2002/10/0/10033439/ ), at this point I'm still working on making the 2D driver DRI aware. See http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dri/xc/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/savage/?only_with_tag=savage-0-0-1-branch and http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/howto/ddx.html . Savage_dri.c is still needing several functions: i've been basically copy'n'pasting from the other drivers (especially radeon, which is one of the most up2date), to fill in the void. I have the savage4 specs (which weren't get obtained under NDA), but so far I haven't need them. At this time it's more important getting to know the DRI architecture by reading the FAQ, http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/faq/ . I hope you don't get scared with all this, and join our efforts. Don't forget to subscribe to dri-devel, and ask there any information you need. Regards, José Fonseca __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
