Config.in patch applied.

  # ./matroxset -m 00001111
  # ioctl failed: Device or resource busy

Have tried other variations, too.

  # ls /proc/drivers/mga/
  fb0
  # cat /proc/drivers/mga/fb0/bios
  BIOS: 1.2.21
  Output: 0x00
  TVOut: no
  PINS: found
  Info: c02a0a8c

Howerver, fb1 gets registered (yes as the secondary head of fb0).

  # dmesg | grep matrox
  Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=linux ro root=306 video=matrox:vesa:0x192,font:SUN12x22,nopan
  matroxfb: Matrox G450 detected
  matroxfb: MTRR's turned on
  matroxfb: 1152x864x16bpp (virtual: 1152x864)
  matroxfb: framebuffer at 0x42000000, mapped to 0xe0805000, size 33554432
  matroxfb_crtc2: secondary head of fb0 was registered as fb1
