[Savage40] Wanted: savage dri HOWTO

Thanks all people for creating the DRI drivers for the savage!

However, I find installing is quite tricky and seems to involve many 
components. I only got it to work once.
Good documentation on how to install them seems missing/dated/scattered.
Where can I find it? Perhaps the probo.com site can combine a few 
pointers.

It would also be good to know if old and new setups can co-exist next to 
each other.

Finally, currently cards with little memory can only start DRI in low 
resolution. So AFAIK you can either start in low res. with DRI, or in high 
res. without DRI. It would be great if the DRI could be enabled depending 
on resolution/depth (changeable with xrandr), without the need to restart X.
