Hello Tormod.

This was the first time I tested Matrox dual-head with Ubuntu. I'm not
100% sure if i remember that correctly, but I think it worked correctly
with Mageia 2. Of course they could have completely different component
versions and local patches. I tried to figure out what component the
issue lies in by testing an ATI Radeon 7000 card with dual-head in the
same computer and it worked without problems. Both screens worked
correctly and I could manage them with xrandr ... so .... I believe it
must be the MGA driver. As the Xorg guys still doing enhancements and
forget to redesign drivers dependent on removed obsolete features, it's
kinda expectable. Anyway, according to the manuals on the Internet, this
feature worked correctly in the past.

If you have any questions or request, don't hesitate to ask. I'm willing
to do any tests, if you want.

Thanks and regards,
Jaromir.
