The previous package (1:2.1.3-3) is available from http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2007/09/17/debian/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-savage/ If downgrading only this one fixes the problem, then it would be good to find out which exact commit broke things in the savage driver. Can you do a git-bisect with the upstream git repository? If not, could you at least try building the previous 2.1.3-3 with the following patch applied: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-video-savage.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=846a69f70d189c486448df269a512b8d42fab0c2;hp=53a2088c5590bb96ce9a7ad30d908c7ea1d54027 > Section "Device" > Identifier "S3 Inc.
