Yes, I did. > >You were using the proprietary matrox drivers, which where built for >4.1.0, and are incompatible with 4.2.1. Actually, the file that I got from Matrox (mgadrivers-2.0.tgz) came with files compiled for 4.0.3, 4.1.0, and 4.2.0. I am using the 4.2.0 drivers.

I would like to respectfully ask that when replying please just send to the list and not reply to me. Thanks again.
