The Matrox Millenium II isn't supported by the version of xfree86 that ships with Debian bo (1.3.1). However, it is supported by a later version of Xfree86, so you can get it to work; basically, what I did was install xbase, xvga16, xsvga, then I went through and set up a vga system more or less as David Stern described. I then downloaded the XFree86 binaries from the XFree86 site and installed them on top of the Debian stuff. I posted a message a bit back describing this procedure in detail - I still have a copy somewhere, and can send that along if the mailing list archives are still in disarray. (Does the search engine work yet? If not, does anyone in charge of it care?) (I was doing this because I have a Matrox Mystique 220, for which the situation is similar in terms of which X supports it.) -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
