Presumably Ubuntu devs will not be interested in this.  It needs
reporting by everyone to the Xorg developers to get their attention.
How does one do that?

Does anyone know WHY they decided to rip out XAA (whatever that is)?

Title:
  matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On a certified Dell PowerEdge T620 server
  (http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201207-11426/)

  The matrox video card is not recognised:
  lspci | grep VGA
  0a:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Electronics Systems Ltd. G200eR2

  lshw -C display
    *-display UNCLAIMED     
         description: VGA compatible controller
         product: G200eR2
         vendor: Matrox Electronics Systems Ltd.
         physical id: 0
         bus info: pci@0000:0a:00.0
         version: 00
         width: 32 bits
         clock: 33MHz
         capabilities: pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list
         configuration: latency=64 maxlatency=32 mingnt=16
         resources: memory:d8000000-d8ffffff memory:deffc000-deffffff memory:de000000-de7fffff

  Thus xserver is not hardver accelerated.

  Also /dev/dri and /dev/dri/card0 is missing.

  kernel module mga is not loaded, although if i manually load by modprobe it works fine
  modprobe mga
  lsmod | grep mga
  mga                    40811  0 
  drm                   302817  1 mga
