No wiki pages for Matrox G200 (a.k.a. mga) AFAIK. Maybe you could write one :)
You may want to have these kernel configuration
* CONFIG_AGP (if that video card is APG)
* CONFIG_DRM
* CONFIG_DRM_MGA
which could be found in menuconfig
Device Drivers --->
Graphices support --->
<*> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
<*> Direct Rendering Graphices (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support) --->
<*> Matrox g200/g400
and put 'VIDEO_CARDS="mga"' in make.conf which will automatically emerge
x11-drivers/xf86-video-mga when you do next emerge x11-base/xorg-drivers.
