savage_dri.o in the 2D driver directory is not the 3D driver. it's one of the objects that gets linked into savage_drv.o. The 3D driver lives in xc/xc/lib/GL/mesa/src/drv/savage and when compiled and linked is called savage_dri.so. > but > when i issued > "make -f Makefile.linux LINUXDIR=/usr/src/linux" > in > "xc/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel" > i only got mga, ati, etc. drivers, no savage. do i have to patch my > kernel, or Makefile.linux, or something else? Just to be sure, did you check out the savage-2-0-0-branch of DRI cvs? do you see any files that start with 'savage' in xc/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel?
