Have you read the FAQ (http://www.parisc-linux.org/faq/graphics-howto.html) ?
Especially this bit:

"But some graphics drivers might have minor issues.
E.g. to ensure the Matrox Millenium graphics card will be initialized properly 
one must physically disconnect the computer from the power line before 
(re)booting - it is not sufficient to just press the power-off button."
