Thanks for the feedback, that's a silly mistake in the patch.  The
patched version of the driver ONLY works with a dual head setup, it
can't be used when there's only 1 screen or you get a NULL deref.
Should have thought of that really.  Will do another one tomorrow (my
home PC doesn't have a matrox card) and try it with a single head setup
as well.

Incidentally I believe the autodetect and screen resolution applet rely
on an XRandR extension which isn't present in this driver.  The first
comment in the bug claims this is in a newer version of the driver but
not in this version.  I think that means that without a ServerLayout
section you'll only ever get single head mode with this version of the
driver.
