tip: X and matrox millenium II

["Donald R. Harter Jr." <ah230@traverse.lib.mi.us>]

I finally got my Matrox MIllenium II card to work with X and debian.  The
reason I had so much trouble, is that none of the debian xserver releases
have the latest SVGAxserver with the matrox millenium driver.  Not even
hamm has these drivers.  Confusion is caused by the numbering of the
debian releases.  The latest release of X is 3.3.1(ftp.XFree86.org)  Hamm
had a release number of 3.3.3.  This is not the latest version.  You have
to go the XFree86 ftp site after following the instructions at the
http://matrox.alloy.net site.  I hope this saves somebody some time and
aggravation.
