Hi, I don't have any experience with the G400. But I thought Matrox cards worked really well with Linux. We have several machines here with Millennium IIs and G200s, and they work great. In fact, I remember a few years ago when the G400 came out, I read an article on the Internet about how good Quake on Linux looked with the G400. Have you tried a different monitor? That's the only thing I can think of at this point. I'm all tapped out of ideas. Good luck,
