After some testing I could now start to provide patches for this tool and make it work with current kernels again - because of modifications to the "vm86" IO macros in the kernel, the lrmi files needed some updates also.

Are any maintainers listening who could help me integrating the patches correctly for Debian and Ubuntu? I'd also like to re-add this package to Debian again, helping users of the S3 savage chips to gan more comfort and usability again.

Additionally I have prepared some patches to the savage driver which allow to acommodate s3switch's changes better and, for example, keep the selected devices also in case of a mode change, where the current driver re-uses the previous information and reverts the selections done by s3switch.
