Well, I'll forgive everyone for not jumping right in and flooding me with
answers to this one. :-) Thanks to the quick wit and brilliant insight of
Petr Vandrovec (the author of matroxset and the matrox fb code in the kernel)
we discovered that, because I'm using a single-head G400 with the dual-head
add-on card, the matroxfb_maven.c file had to be tweaked to find the right
device on the I2C bus. The line
#define MAVEN_I2CID (0x1B)
had to be changed to
#define MAVEN_I2CID (0x1A)
Making that one-character change and rebuilding the kernel fixed all my
problems. I don't know how common this problem is (not too, I'd guess), but
hopefully this will help someone else out!
Thanks,
B
