>From upstream IRC channel: me: Is the DVI output supposed to work on a MGA G550? We've got multiple complaints that it never worked (apparently the driver sends out-of-range frequencies). => I believe it requires mga_hal me: That's what these users are doing, yes => There's a workaround, enable matroxfb. If your dfp goes black when you start X, shut it off and on manually me: Is there a chance it gets fixed one day? => I've got DVI support in the randr-1.2 branch, but it's not in a releasable state yet me: No need to report then, just wait => yes
So, you might want to try enabling matroxfb in your kernel and console. FYI, XRandR 1.2 is new shiny feature that driver developers are implementing these days, it makes management of multiple heads much easier and better. So, there might be good news in the future.
