This bug is related to lp: #311544 and http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19337 in that it is the root cause of the savage driver (and other non-rand 1.2 drivers) crash during X startup. The discussion around this bug can be followed on the fd.o bugzilla posting.

The patch attached to this LP bug is a reworked version of Alex' patch which applies to the current version of xorg-xserver in Jaunty (xorg-server-1.5.99.901). This should enable other affected drivers to be used again. Applying this patch negates the need of applying the patch posted in LP: 311544.
