Since I guess it can hardly be more effort than the "-vo gl on ancient Mac Mini"
hacks I don't mind helping either.
Issues are just:
1) I'm not willing to spend the money Matrox asks for something that, honestly,
by today's standards is more than just sub-par, and in addition by a company
that seems no but more Open-Source friendly than NVidia (actually less IMO).
2) I probably won't be able to reuse anyone's card (onyl PCIe and PCI available here,
no AGP, and even PCI would invole card-swapping each time I want to test something).

Within those constraints and my time I am available though...
