Farooq Mela:
 |However, when I try to start Xinerama it says I'm missing an mga_hal.o
 |file, which is apparently needed for getting dual-head working with the
 |G400. ... Any ideas on how to build this file, or where to get it? :*D

Coleman Kane:
 |You ca nget this from Matrox. It used to be downloaded and installed with
 |the WITH_MATROX_GXX_DRIVER make variable in the XFree86-4 port. It has
 |been disabled due to some issues with 4.1.0.

Farooq, see:

   xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/README.DRI

It gives a little more detail.  Search down for "MGAHAL".

May have to fiddle with this myself actually.  I'm currently trying to coax
DRI up on a G450 with the latest XFree86 DRI CVS, and (if README.DRI is
up-to-date) I'm going to need it.
