Am familiar with the issue, and the direct answer is no.  _BUT_ you can
resolve your problem the same way that I did (I'm using an MGA Matrox
Millenium G200 AGP card).  Go to <http://www.suse.de/XSuSE/XSuSE_E.html>
and locate the Matrox section.  You'll need to download the Matrox
driver _AND_ the modified xf86config utility to get this working.  But,
from there all works well.

You'll wonder why your data's lost
   When you load your system with MicroSoft...
