x11-drivers/xf86-video-mga is 1.4.11
x11-base/xorg-x11 is 7.4-r1
x11-base/xorg-server is 1.8.0
kde-base/kde-meta is 4.4.2

[Comment 3 J.C. Wren 2010-05-16 12:30:39 UTC]

Bumping this to major since it's keeping two systems from working, and it hasn't been reassigned.

[Comment 4 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) 2010-05-16 13:17:00 UTC]

This seems to be a xorg driver issue. I have no idea how good matrox support is on current X.org versions.
Have you tried using xdm or startx with tmw and see if it works?

[Comment 5 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) 2010-05-16 13:18:18 UTC]

Sorry, changing to correct maintainer.

[Comment 6 J.C. Wren 2010-05-16 19:07:16 UTC]

After upgrading from xorg-sever-1.8.0 to 1.8.1, xfree-x86-mga now emerges correctly.  

I'm not sure if this should be changed to FIXED, left open, or what.  I'll leave it to the maintainers to change the status.

Thanks!

Premature comment post.  Please disregard, still broken.

Please try again with x11-drivers/xf86-video-mga-1.4.12

[Comment 9 J.C. Wren 2010-05-21 16:06:26 UTC]

1.4.12 fixes it.  Thanks!

[Comment 10 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) 2010-05-22 11:32:32 UTC]

Closing fixed then.

Thanks
