Hmm.. I'm currently thinking about upgrading from my Matrox Mystique
to a Matrox Millenium II... Is it really un-usable under xfree? even the
latest version? The support for the Mystique isn't 100% but I get by fine
and I thank them ppl at Xfree
I just got a matox mill II, and used it w/ 3.3.1, but everyonce-in-a-while
it would crash. Using rpms in contrib, I upgraded to 3.3.2, and it works
*great.* I'd definitely a good choice (and if you really need good 3-d,
you can get another 3d card).

Xi Graphics is the best display server out for Linux. Hands down.
The Matrox Millenium II w/16 megs I ran was solid under AcceleratedX.
As SuSE develops the Millenium II updates, it will be better for XFree86,
but it's tough to even even compare it to AcceleratedX. Also, I find the tech support
We found that the CDE screen-saver (admittedly, not a particularly vital component of
anything these days) was completely non-functional, and apprised Xi's tech support of
this. We were promised a prompt reply. That was weeks ago, and we've since heard
precisely nothing from them. This is typical
I use the XFree 3.3.2 SVGA driver with my Millinium II is it works great.
I'm not sure why you think it is slow. It isn't as fast the the XiG
driver, but its fast enough for just about anything you'd do. I run it
at 1600x1280x16bpp and I've seen no problems.

I'm using the SVGA X server from XFree86 3.3.2 with my Millennium II -- it's
fine and free. I don't know how it compares to AcelX, but I'm guessing that
it's probably not quite as good, but the price/performace ratio can't be beat.

I have a Matrox Mill-II vid-board and am currently running the Metro-X
server distributed with RH 5. I get screen corruption when the system
sits idle and was wondering what is the best server to use with this
vid-board.
I have used the Xfree SVGA server (3.3.1 I think) and was wondering

XiGraphics' CDE with their AcceleratedX will run circles around most X servers.
It is neither free nor cheap, and their tech support is spotty, but the
difference is impressive. We use it on a Matrox Millennium 2 driving a 21"
Hitachi, and it makes Linux almost user-friendly.
