Got it, but don't know how to compile it for fedora. According to what
Alex Deucher said on DRI list (
http://www.mail-archive.com/dri-devel lists sourceforge net/msg14732.html ), which is

"you need to build the savage kernel module.  The code is in:
xc/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel

Change to that directory and then type:
make -f Makefile.linux
or
make -f Makefile.linux LINUXDIR=/path/to/kernel/src

If you are using redhat 9 (possibly fedora as well), the build will
fail because redhat is using the MM code from 2.6 in their 2.4 kernels.
 If that is the case you will need to download and install a vanilla
2.4 kernel."

I tried it anyway, and then the result was:

As I want to keep with fedora kernels, (and I just realized that this
machine has it outdated), am I trapped? Will I have to grab a vanilla
kernel for this?

Thanks for any help.
