The relevant sections from my archived (and hopefully correct)
configuration file for the G550:
Section "Device"
Identifier "MatroxG550 Primary"
VendorName "Matrox"
Driver "mga"
Screen 0
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "NoDDC"
Option "AGPMode" "2"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "MatroxG550 Secondary"
VendorName "Matrox"
Driver "mga"
Screen 1
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "NoDDC"
Option "AGPMode" "2"
EndSection
I think the "NoDDC" option is what you want.
Here is some discussion from the Matrox forum via Google's cache regarding
the detection problem (Ben is/was the only one of their moderators that had
a brain):

The "NoDDC" option is discussed here:
