Alpha 164lx with Matrox

[Paulo Fragoso]

Hi,

We have four Alpha 164lx with Matrox Millennium Video Card, we are 
trying to use FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE, all works fine but when XFree 4 (with 
mga driver) is started all system freezes and reboot after some seconds. 
Anything is logged with mga driver.

Our SRM is lx164_v5_8.exe and this card is working with vga driver but 
with very low resolution. Vga driver reports a pci device in 
/var/log/XFree86.0.log:
