Any help, suggestions would be appreciated If you're willing to upgrade to XFree86 4.0.2, the Savage driver on my website (http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html) should do a much better job. RedHat 7.0 ships with XFree86 4.0.1, and the new Savage driver needs features only present in 4.0.2. -- - Tim Roberts, timr@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc.
