The Matrox Millenium is supported in the SVGA driver.  It will
auto-detect all card capabilities.

The mode lines for your /etc/XF86Config depend on you Monitor's
capabilities.  For `standard' resolutions up to 1024x764, the
`standard' mode lines should suffice for most monitors.

I have a Viewsonic 17PS and run at 1600x1200 resolution with 256
colors since Nov 1996.  The quality of the driver is outstanding, 
it currently implements most accellerations and supports DGA (e.g. 
for xf86quake :-) ).  Matrox has been very supportive in suppying all
technical data on the Millenium to the XF86 team.

The only thing not complete is 24bit color support.  More info at:

XFree86 HomePage at `http://WWW.XFree86.org/'
