Daniel,
I have an almost equal set up at home (Sony GDM 1962 B with SUN label).
I made it work with a Matrox G200 under LM 6.1 and 7.1 after studying
the
links listed below. Of course I had to use a normal monitor for
installation,
modify XFree86Config by hand, and must use runlevel 5 all the time, but
the monitor is really good.
Have a look at the links and let us know. Monday I'll also post my home
Xfree86Config file, with modelines and all.
Good luck,
Marco
