I have not seen any newer SVGA-Libs in quite a while, so I do not know
if there is ongoing development. Anyways, I assume that GGI will
eventually obsolete the original SVGA-Lib (there will be a compatible
library that allows to use old programs). Thus, if there is anybody
volunteering to code support for the Matrox Millenium, I suggest that
he either goes for XFree86 or GGI support, but not for SVGA-Lib!
