Kernel driver for the back-end scaler on Matrox cards (source)

The mga_vid module will enable you to use the back-end scaler found on many Matrox cards. If you own a Matrox card, and use your Debian system to watch movies with 'mplayer', which you'll find at http://mplayerhq.hu , you definitely want this piece of software, as it is the best video output driver available.

This package just contain the sources needed to build the kernel module. To actually use it, you'll have to compile it to match your installed kernel. Refer to /usr/share/doc/mga-vid-source/README.Debian for information on how to do this.
