Tim,
Have you looked for a video ROM upgrade on the Matrox site. I had a Millenium
in the past and had to upgrade the video ROM.
There are two other tools to configure X. XF86Setup(requires XF86_VGA16 server)
and xf86config(text mode). I don't believe either is installed by default.
Their both on the installation CD. Both programs require you to choose the
video card and specifiy monitor timings. Try being conservative with monitor
timings at first. The Millenium driver is in the XF86_SVGA server.
Hope this helps.
