Hi,

It seams that some changes in the matroxfb.c file prevent the kernel to
compile with the support for the matrox frame buffer.

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.3.13/drivers/video'
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.3.13/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -DCPU=586 -c -o matroxfb.o matroxfb.c

Here is the console driver part of my .config file:

# Console drivers
#
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y
# CONFIG_MDA_CONSOLE is not set
CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
# CONFIG_FB_PM2 is not set
# CONFIG_FB_VESA is not set
# CONFIG_FB_VGA16 is not set
CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y

CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MYSTIQUE=y
# CONFIG_FB_MATROX_G100 is not set

# CONFIG_FB_ATY is not set
# CONFIG_FB_VIRTUAL is not set
# CONFIG_FBCON_ADVANCED is not set
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB8=y

CONFIG_FBCON_CFB32=y
# CONFIG_FBCON_FONTWIDTH8_ONLY is not set
# CONFIG_FBCON_FONTS is not set
CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y

Tell me if I can help in any way.
