Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
I got a new (secondhand) IBM laptop today and installed Feisty. It has the SuperSavage IX/C card in it and there is 3D support for it in Xorg. But unfortunately, in the last few weeks, the savage DRI driver is broken and only 2D works, not 3D. Here is what glxgears says:
eugenia@ibm-T23:~$ glxgears
libGL error: drmMap of framebuffer failed (Invalid argument)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
The kernel driver is loaded btw.
eugenia@ibm-T23:~$ lsmod | grep "savage"
savage 34048 1
drm 81044 2 savage
It seems to just be broken... Here is a similar debian bug report:

Confirmed, after I did what it is suggested in the debian bug report, recompiling the latest driver, it worked. Please provide an updated driver.
