I get funny flickering effects sometimes in overlay video on mine when
running at high resolutions (1600x1200 pr 2048x1536).
Don't know if it's the card or the motherboard though - happens on both
an Abit BP6 w/2x400MHz celerons and a KT7-RAID w/1.1 Duron
Also, it runs damn hot (this is the 32Mb DDR version). I have the urge
to strap a fan to that seemingly immovable heatsink.
The Matrox drivers haven't been updated in a long time, either (not sure
about the XFree ones).
Still, I like it :)
