FC1 used XFree86.  FC2/3 uses X.org.  According to FC3's
/usr/X11R6/lib/drivers directory, there is a savage_drv.o file.  Try
"system-config-display", click on the "Hardware" tab, then "Configure"
in the "Video Card" area.  Scroll down the list and find the "S3
Savage/IX" entry, highlight it and click "OK".
