  Do I really have to buy a new card?  Or is there something on the
  configuration or debugging messages front that I'm missing?
  
  Heeelllpp!??!?!?!!!  :-)
 
 I know NIL about the savage driver but what happens if you strip out all 
 those funky Modelines from your XF86Config and just set up the 
 VertRefresh/HorizSync ranges in the Monitor section to match your 
 monitor (unless the ones you have actually are correct)?

Well, the modelines that are there were put there by SaX, but sure, I
can comment them out and see what happens.  I've already handmangled
the monitor section; yeah; that part's right.

Alas, that didn't help much, as didn't running X -configure, and
using that file.  I just can't get about 640, and without CRTOnly and
UseBIOS No, I can't get anything at all.

Ok; time for a new video card.  sigh
