I have the MGA Millenium driver for my Matrox device. You might try the
following: Go to your display dialog, select the "Settings" tab (for me it
is the "MGA Settings" tab). See if you can find an "Advanced" button, and if
so, select it. Then find the "Use display bitmap caching" checkbox and make
sure it is not checked.
I also encounter problems with my Matrox and JFW if I am using something
other than the "Windows Default" color scheme (display dialog, "Appearance"
tab). Henter-Joyce says JFW is only supported with the "Windows Default"
color scheme. This is unfortunate, as I'm sure I'm not the only low vision
user who would prefer to use a more high contrast color scheme. (Sorry for
the rant!)
Hope this helps.
