subject: S3 Savage4 and Linux Mandrake 7.2

Hello, All! How are you doing?

Does anyone know how can I set up the video card S3 Savage4 so that it could
work properly in Lunux Mandrake 7.2 (8.0)? Now it is working only in console
but GUI can't be loaded. If it is needed I can show what's exactly happening
after entering the command *startx* in a command-line.

This is a usual problem for Mandrake and S3 video cards, I know.  But  there
was a time when I even got rid of the problem and I even saw X Window ran on
a system with that video card. :) But unfortunately I don't remember how did
I do that. If somebody has  already  set it up then  don't keep that  useful
information, place it here.
