Great idea, excellent card. I used to use a G450 until I moved to a G550 here last month and fed the G450 to my Windows machine. > Is this card already supported with this version of X (with the 4.1.0 it > was/should have been)? You betcha. Use the mga driver. > So far I have the idea, that I need do download somewhere some > precompiled modules.

There's no real reason to use the Matrox-provided one unless you really need HAL support for something, like TV-out or the digital display. # dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 And that should take care of your needs. -- Marc Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
