  I'm a little surprised by this.  Recently I could not get SyncOnGreen
to work with either HAL or the XFree drivers and a Matrox G400 (on
either head), using X 4.1.  I figured it was a problem with the monitor
(and it still could be).  When I noticed the recent posting that it
might be a problem in the driver, you gave me alot of hope. :)

  Or do the #defines do something more drastic than just switching
between using HAL and not using it in the XF86Config-4 file?
