just as a follow up, I got the DRM to build under 2.4.24, (redhat uses 2.6 MM in rh9). Unfortunately, I can't get pcmcia to work for me in 2.4.24, so I can either hack on the savage driver or have network access, depending on which kernel I boot. I need to get that sorted out. anyone hear of any problems with rh9 and pcmcia with vanilla kernels?
I tested the driver on my savage4 and I see the 2D corruption maximo was talking about with tile mode enabled. everything is fine with tilemode disabled. However, 3D doesn't seem to work in either mode. With or without tilemode disabled I get random black and white moving rectangles in the glxgears window. Also 3D only seems to work at 16 bpp. at 24 bpp, the drm complains about dma (I forget the exact message; something about savage_dma.c). I also gave it a try on my savage IX based card. Opening the drm fails so direct rendering is never enabled. Also I'm going to need to re-add the "crtonly" option (from tim's driver) since these cards seem to think there is a 640x480 flatpanel attached, so modes are limited to 640x480.
