I don't think you can blame Dani's driver for that.

Maybe in the past, not for now anymore.

The Ati and S3-Virge do work excellent now, with the latest drivers.
Especially the S3 with the latest 1.03.25 drivers.

No. The big problem with Matrox are the Matrox drivers. These drivers don't
cope too well with sharing IRQ. That's the reason why the Matrox behave well
on older systems, and why they have problems on newer one's.

You are absolutely wrong about that. Comm404 behaved rather well, the new
comm461 is stable and works well.

It is on the contrary my impression, Netscape was (and is) falsely blamed for
problems caused by the Matrox drivers.
