3. XF86_SVGA server

The XF86_SVGA ViRGE driver supports all current flavors of the S3 ViRGE chipset including Trio3D and the Savage family. It uses the XAA acceleration architecture for acceleration, and allows color depths of 8, 15, 16, 24 and 32 bpp. It has been tested on several 2MB and 4MB ViRGE cards, a 4MB ViRGE/DX card, a ViRGE/VX card and a 4MB Trio3D card. Resolutions of up to 1600x1200 have been achieved. This is an early release of this driver, and not everything may work as expected. Please note that Trio3D support is an initial release and not very well tested. Please report any problems to XFree86@Xfree86.org using the appropriate bug report sheet.
