I downloaded the latest savage and common snapshots today, and I have a
few notes (thanks for the great work!): 
   - The snapshots do not work out-of-the-box on 2.6 kernels -- the 2.6
DRM must be downloaded from CVS installed separately (this does not seem
to be documented)
   - My previously reported problem with glDrawPixels is still happens. 
Card is S3 Inc. SuperSavage IX/C SDR (rev 05) on ThinkPad T23. The
problem seems to be that glDrawPixels doesn't work to the back buffer. 
For example, the 'drawpix' demo shows blackness until the 'f' key is
pressed to switch drawing to the front buffer. Drawpix works normally 
when LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT is set. 

It would appear that glDrawPixels is copying pixels to the wrong place.
For example, see http://69.5.151.193/~sdh4/dribug.png. The black and
colored stripes in this picture are texture portions corrupted by 
glDrawPixels. (There is supposed to be a map display in the lower right.
The glDrawPixels() is supposed to copy this into the back buffer,
instead it ends up splattered over the textures). In addition, if you
look at the word 'East   -76.' in the picture (under 'Marine park'),
that text was written with glutBitmapCharacter() (translates to
glBitmap()) to the (2D orthogonal) back buffer.  

        Thanks, 
        Steve
