Hi Matt, Thank you for the suggestion. I am glad I asked the community before incrementing the version number. Following the xorg development guideline, I just incremented xf86-video-mga's version to 1.6.900. Based on your reasonable request, I will increment it to 2.0.0 hopefully by early next week. Version 1.6.900 is a release candidate version prior to 2.0.0. Anyone interested in the code, please test the code if you have the equipment.
