Any ideas on how should I proceed to make the S3 savage work with my monitors,
and preferably with any monitor?

For example since X / Bios combination works is it possible to get into the right
mode and then dump the registers somehow for examination or for later feeding?

Is it possible for the kernel driver to use Bios switching?

Any help / suggestion is greatly appreciated.
