Umm, do you think your XF86Config would work with the XFree version
that comes with NetBSD 1.4.1?
I got the Matrox working - kind of. I pulled it out the system and re-
inserted it, wiggled it back and forth etc. and after a reboot, I got
console there. Then I started fighting with XFree, but can't get a good
display mode working (don't know if it's my Nokia or the Matrox). I also
lost my console display - it seems the syncs have been turned off and the
monitor goes into power saving mode.
I built XF86Setup, but I get no picture on screen (still in power save)
when I run it...
Argh ;-)
