The PMAG-A is supported in 1.3, but a bit buggy.

You should be using the cfb server; the mfb server doesn't work (and
shouldn't work).  The PMAG-A is an "mfb" turbochannel card, but the
"mfb" X server is for the monochrome frame buffer in the 2100/3100
machines.  Confusing, isn't it?

I'm not sure precisely what you mean by "quasi-usable", but for some
known bugs (and a patch to fix them, which has been integrated into
-current) please see:

If you have problems that aren't addressed by this patch, please let
me know, with as much detail as possible so I can try to reproduce
your problem.
