Description andrew lorien 2004-06-05 23:18:07 UTC
something like

Matrox cards
Many Matrox video cards require the proprietary 'mga_hal' module to enable dual-head (G400 and earlier) or video capture capabilities (all Matrox cards afaik).  Matrox has yet to release a 64-bit compiled version of this module, so while the card will work, you won't be able to use these features.


and while you're at it, you can correct the spelling:
Acceleration Support
