Like Yaron said, you want to use XFree86 4.0.x. Matrox also has some drivers on their website that you should probably check out (Unfortunately, their drivers page seems to be down right now, but I'm sure that will get fixed fairly quickly). You'll need X 4.0.2 to use their newest driver. http://www.matrox.com/mga/support/drivers/home.cfm With XF4.0, you don't have to rename /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 -- XF4.0 will look at that file before looking at /etc/X11/XF86Config. -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ Drive defensively.
