Not a G200, but I do have the original Millenium. However, I there are Matrox drivers for the G200 that have been tweaked by S.U.S.E. and donated back to XFree86. Try their web site (http://www.suse.de/XSuSE/XSuSE_E.html). There are a number of people (including me) who swear by Matrox cards, especially the Millenium line. > > If I install just the binary CD (cheapbytes) and run XF86Setup.
