Damm. I was just going to post to ask if I could run Linux on my system with my 8MB Matrox card. What exactly is the deal with the drivers for a Matrox card (this thread does not go back far enough on my news sever..sorry)? I personal have always found Matrox to be a great company. Email is answered by the next day and driver problems are addressed ASAP. Also, being as I run OS/2 I am very happy with them because other their continuing support of OS/2.
