(Get the code!)
I have just installed Ubuntu 10.10 with G450 Matrox, and came upon this issue.
- I tried running patch from #100, but this didn't work at all.
- I then applied patch manually. This then built a mga_drv.so file that allowed me to boot into the GUI.
I then tried countless versions of the xorg.conf, but the second monitor attached to the DVI never seemed to work.
Until I logged out instead of restarting the machine.
I was always trying out my changes by restarting the machine. And this never worked. But if I log in with an xorg.conf set up for single monitor mode, copy over xorg.conf with one set up for dual monitor mode, then log out, hey presto - both monitors are working at the login screen.
Hope this bit of info helps anyone figure out what is going on.
