No change when using the driver from GIT.

I could not build the one from the first URL :(
In file included from mga_arc.c:50:
mga.h:377: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'xf86AccessRec'
mga.h: In function 'MGA_MARK_SYNC':
mga.h:674: error: 'struct <anonymous>' has no member named 'Exa'
mga.h:678: error: 'struct <anonymous>' has no member named 'Exa'
mga.h:679: error: 'struct <anonymous>' has no member named 'AccelInfoRec'

etc..

I guess I'm stuck with 1280x1024 for now.

Maybe I can dig up a PCIe 8x ATI or nVidia card from somewhere..
