The last time that MGA and Intel were both broken was due to a compiler
error which broke both video controllers in a similar fashion.

Is your X configuration setup as badly as the one someone posted
earlier? I would not suppose the compiler was amiss again.

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2006-June/msg02385.html


i am basically using the default configuration with a few changes, but
it doesn't look all that much different from the one you posted. what
about that is so bad?

anyway, here's the relevant portion of the xorg.conf. it's difficult
working with it, because every error just makes the screen go blank
like it's in "standby" mode -- even just putting another resolution
the mode line -- and the only way to get any screen back at all, even
a console, is to reboot. i guess fedora configured the framebuffer
wrong for the matrox card.
