The Matrox driver in XFree86-4 is not as full-featured as the one available from Matrox. Use the "official", closed-source Matrox driver unless your Open Source beliefs do not allow you to do so. My G450 -generated display looks _much_ better using the driver from the Matrox site. Hoyt http://www.maximumhoyt.com
