The appropriate list for user support issues is debian-user. http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/ > Section "Device" > Identifier "Matrox Graphics, Inc. Millennium G200" > Driver "mga_hal" > VideoRam 16000 > EndSection This looks like a problem. Why are you trying to use "mga_hal", and not "mga"? Also, why are you explicitly specifying a quantity of video RAM? Have you read the corresponding debconf question? Template: xserver-xfree86/config/device/video_ram Type: string Description: Enter the amount of memory (in kB) to be used by your video card. Typically, the amount of dedicated memory your video card has is autodetected by the X server, but some integrated video chips (such as the Intel i810) have little or no video memory of their own, and instead borrow main system memory for their needs. . It is perfectly acceptable to leave this parameter blank; only if your video card lacks RAM, or if the X server has trouble autodetecting the amount, is it necessary to specify the amount of video RAM. -- G.
