 What does this code do?
 
-	 mga_vid is a kernel module that utilitizes the Matrox g200/g400 video 
-	 scaler/overlay unit to perform YUV->RGB colorspace conversion and
-	 arbitrary video scaling.

 	 mga_vid is also a monster hack.
 
 How does mga_vid work?
 
-	This kernel module sets up the BES (backend scaler) with approriate values
-	based on parameters supplied via ioctl. It also maps a chunk of video
-	memory into userspace via mmap. This memory is stolen from X (which may
-	decide to write to it later). The application can then write image data
-	directly to the frame buffer (if it knows the right padding, etc).

 How do I know if mga_vid works on my system?
 
-	There are test applications called mga_vid_test_g400 and mga_vid_test_g200.
-	Use the appropriate one for your card. This test code should draw some
-	nice 256x256 images for you if all is working well.
