Re: Matrox Millenium
There are two things you might want to do. First check
http://www.bf.rmit.edu.au/~ajv/xf86-matrox.html for the info about XFree86
Matrox server. This info is made by the authors of the Matrox code in
XF86_SVGA server.
The second is that you should try XF86Setup which comes with the xserver-vga16
package. XF86Setup is a graphical tool for creating the config files and it
uses the 16 color VGA server. XF86Setup is what I used.
You really shouldn't need to specify any of the chipset, ramdac, size of
available WRAM memory etc. since the driver automatically detects everything.

PS. It should be possible to replace the server that comes with XFree86 3.2
with the newer 3.2A version. There is no Debian package for 3.2A since it's a
binary only distribution and Debian wants to offer sources too. I have not yet
tried it so I can't verify this information.
