        Have just tested 4.1 on the same machine.  Results are almost
identical to 4.0.3.  I.e., non-primary cards aren't initialized without
HAL, "MGASDRAM" still has to be specified twice, and non-primary AGP is
detected as having 2M RAM. 

        However, I have yet to test CVS branch.

(What is interesting is that RedHat's RawHide version (I used
4.1.0-0.20.0) of mga_drv.o doesn't support HAL at all -- probably
USE_MATROX_HAL was undefined at build time.)
