Well, I don't know about G550, but I have a G450, which I'm using with 
XOrg 7.4.

I remember I had problems with the latest xf86-video-mga (couldn't 
achieve full resolution), but I solved with a single downgrade of this 
port to 1.4.
Now it looks like it has been downgraded in the port tree too (unless I 
misinterpret http://www.freshports.org/x11-drivers/xf86-video-mga/).
So you might want to try fiddling with this port only.

Only woe is the speed: it looks like my graphics section is a lot slower 
since it was back in the XFree times; or, again, it was since the first 
XOrg versions... I really never dug into this.
