As I recall the G450-PCI cards were just AGP chips with an agp to pci
bridge. Perhaps you need to hack up an agpgart driver for the bridge? Also, for the pci g450, matrox only supported 3D on motherboards with
intel chipsets for whatever reason.

If possible, I'd like to leave that until later. Esp. since I don't have any docs for that. :(

You do now! looks like PLX owns HiNT now and they have the databooks on their website. according to this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=dri-devel&m=102373024625910&w=2 the pci g540 uses the Hint HB1-SE33 bridge. PLX bought HiNT and changes a few names: http://www.plxtech.com/products/hint/naming.htm but makes the specs available here: http://www.plxtech.com/products/hint/6152.asp

Hmm....I wonder what bridge chip the G450-for-POWER board actually uses, then. It's a semi-custom board, and all the POWER systems I know of have 66MHz, 64-bit PCI slots (or PCI-X). I wonder if it uses one of the other chips. I guess I'll have to wait to find out until Airborne actually delivers the box to my office. :)
