Hi,
You are (knowingly or not) running X 3.3.x (XF86_SVGA is a 3.3.6 X server - as opposed to drivers
in the X 4.x world) This needs not be bad but you need the right configuration file. I suggest you

tell us which distrribution you are using (version included),
post your /etc/X11/XF86Config (/etc/X11/XSf86Config-4 if there is one) and your log:
/var/log/XFree86.0.log
