Hi there.

I have a Matrox G450 video card. When I first intalled
Linux Mandrake 7.2 I had to copy in the directory
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/modues/drivers the mga driver
provided in the matrox website, and to change a little
bit the XF86Config-4 file.
Everything was working ok.

Now I installed I received the CD with the update of
Linux Mandrake 7.2 and after I installed it X is not
working. Specifically X starts for 3 seconds and I can
observe a blue screen with the arrow of the mouse, and
then I go back to the text mode and I receive the
message "Waiting for X server to shut down". Moreover
after that I don't see the text cursor anymore but
instead I observe a cursor that can be controlled by
the mouse. Even if I don't observe the text cursor, I
still can write commands and the computer executes
them, but I'm not able to see what I'm writing.

Can somebody tell me what's happening?

Thank you, Al
