I'd be willing to bet 90% of the people experiencing lockups aren't using
the G200 framebuffer (I know I'm not)

The fact remains that for hundred of other motherboards out there, Linux is
completely stable - the BP6 is unique in the number of people reporting
problems.  I think pointing fingers at other hardware (ie the Matrox cards)
is missing the point - maybe there's some bad interaction between the BP6
and some other hardware, but it still comes down to being a BP6 bug of some
sort if no other motherboard exhibit the same problem.
