No. Not even 2D. IMO, it is a ridiculous position for Matrox to take, but I'm sure they have their reasons. Just like I have my reasons to stick with G-series. > I'd be interested in knowing whether it is likely that open source drivers for > these would be available. Not until they provide documentation, or someone does an end-run around them by reversing. Given the popularity of their hardware compared to NVidia hardware, and the fact that nobody has done any significant reversing for NVidia hardware yet, I would not hold my breath. The most likely thing that will happen without documentation is that someone will put together framebuffer console support for it. -- Ryan Underwood, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
