Matrox G450 problems with 2.4.0 and xfree

Installed a Matrox G450 on my linux system. Now it has problems booting.
Previously I had a matrox G400 card and that worked without any problems.
Below follows .config for the 2.4.0 kernel.
#
CONFIG_FB_MATROX_G450is not set
It is only for secondary head support - and all code which is guarded by this define is executed after lockup occurs, so no, it is not the reason why it works / does not work...
If it helped you, I think that rule (4) from my another posting applies to you - you are just lucky...
I asked matrox devrel again, but no answer. And linking matroxfb with 512KB binary-only mgaHALlib.a is unacceptable personally for me, not even talking about license issues... (and not talking about technical problems with getting mgaHALlib to work in kernel environment...)
