i have dual head sa(l)vage(d) MX card.

it works only in vesa mode, or with dri disabled.

i am trying latest Xorg and mesa avail from gentoo ebuilds.

also Xv doesn't work (tested with plain xawtv) - data is displayed
not in proper window, but as many rectangles with empty holes,
scattered over almost half of the screen (they move when one moves window)

when one enables DRI - Xorg starts, xdm allows login, but it crashes
in the middle of kde startup.

i've tried changing almost all options i was able to find,
and no help.

EXA is not working either (Xorg starts, but there are no window 
decorations)


peculiar thing is that not so long ago (perhaps year...)
i've tried to use the card on exactly same computer,
and it worked fine, including 3d.

now only thing which differs is that
i use fresh gentoo install.
hopefully i've kept old gentoo on backups somewhere, so i will try to 
restore it - but bit later (today i've wasted WHOLE DAY hoping to make it 
work...)
