Hi fellow Matrox users,
Maybe I can help in reporting your problems to Matrox.
Can you give me some more info as to XFree 86 version
and Matrox driver version?

I experienced lost of the signal when switching from X to the console
when booting with vga=ext or some of the graphic modes. It was reported
here that the problem was the Matrox drivers.
Recently, with kernel 2.4.4+ and XFree 4.0.3 (@1280x1024/head)+ Matrox
drivers
Hi, thanks for confirming this. But if it's Matrox's code (we are
talking about the mga_hal_drv.o module for X, correct?) then the ball
is in their court. Has anyone reported this to them so that they can
fix it?
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Seen the same behaviour; you're not alone. I'm running XF86 4.0.3 with a G400. My
guess is that mga_drv goes into some local loop while trying to restore the display.
mga_drv at that moment has I/O privileges and if it hangs, Linux hangs too.
Grtz,
Ben
