Description:

mga is an Xorg driver for Matrox video cards. The driver is
fully accelerated, and provides support for the following framebuffer
depths: 8, 15, 16, 24, and an 8+24 overlay mode. All visual types are
supported for depth 8, and both TrueColor and DirectColor visuals are
supported for the other depths except 8+24 mode which supports Pseudo-
Color, GrayScale and TrueColor. Multi-card configurations are sup-
ported. XVideo is supported on G200 and newer systems, with either
TexturedVideo or video overlay. The second head of dual-head cards is
supported for the G450 and G550. Support for the second head on G400
cards requires a binary-only "mga_hal" module that is available from
Matrox <http://www.matrox.com>, and may be on the CD supplied with the
card. That module also provides various other enhancements, and may be
necessary to use the DVI (digital) output on the G550 (and other
cards).
