I don't know for sure, but if a kernel without framebuffer doesn't help, I'd suspect the Matrox HAL-Lib, which is a binary only library. If you need neither the DVI support nor dual head support, I'd try compiling XFree86, or more specifically the mga driver, without the Matrox HAL library.
I disabled both the HAL library and the framebuffer in the kernel. Neither helped. What fixed it was adding: append="disableapic" to lilo.conf. It's now working fine with the HAL switched off, but with the standard Suse kernel with framebuffer switched on. Jason __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
