[ltp] mandrake 9.1 & xfree86 4.3.0 on t22

[Robert Andersson]

hi all!

just wanted you to know that the savage driver is broken in mandrake
9.1, a quick fix is to copy these files

	/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o
	/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libvbe.a
	/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libint10.a

from mandrake 9.0. N.B! this is not a good fix (rather bad) but it
workes on my box with s3 savage IX :)

oddly it mandrake 9.1 works just fine on my t22 with a 1024x768 lcd
but it goes black on another t22 with a 1400x1050 lcd (after applying
the fix above it also works just fine :)

though i have not yet configured the crt on this machine yet. will do
that in a week or so, doing my old hack starting a parallell x with
another screen resolution.

it seems that it's not mandrake fault but rather xfree86.org and they
are working on getting it right :)

yours,
/robert

ps. by the way... i can't find multiple network profiles configuration
in mandrake 9.1 have they removed that? i usually do not fiddle around
with linux, just solaris so i do not spend much time on following
features coming and going. that was really nice for my laptop
users. ds.
