Q.F18- Is a server for the S3 Trio3D, Trio3D/2X or the S3 Savage3D or
the Savage4 available?

XFree86-3.3.5 supports all these chipsets as part of the SVGA server.
Please note that S3 Savage3D support was not tested and Savage4 support
is currently
restricted to Linux and the Intel Platform. 

Q.F19- S3 Trio3D/2X (86C362, 86C368) doesn't work or is awfully slow

as a quick workaround for XFree86 3.3.3.1 to 3.3.5 you can specify 

        ChipID  0x8a10
        VideoRam 4096

in the device section or compile your own server from XFree86 3.3.5
sources using the following patch:
