    By any chance is your Matrox a Millenium G450? That's what I've been
    using now for about four years. I had it working at one time with X.org
    but that was back when I was using Mandrake. I also have been trying to
    get the acceleration stuff working - but without success.

    For the moment, I'm still using XFree from sarge. Is there a compelling
    reason to switch to X.org?
