ok..  I added the module directory like so:

JoeLinux:/usr/lib/modules/drivers$ ls
mga_hal_drv.o

I've even stuck the file in /usr/lib/modules just to be safe.

and in my XF86Config, I have the following lines:

    ModulePath "/usr/lib/modules"

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "G4001"
    Driver      "mga"
    BusID "1:0:0"
    Screen 0
    Option "Hal"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier "G4002"
    Driver     "mga"
    BusID "1:0:0"
    Screen 1
    Option "Hal"
EndSection

The PCI BusID is correct.  I have determined that it is a case of the
system not using the second port at all.

It still don't work.  I done be very confused.
