OK. I'm going to try to do a better patch than this which just changes the MGA driver but for now you need two patches. Here is the first against the libpciaccess library which disables the duplicate mapping check. This isn't how it should be done, but it's a quick hack and it does get the thing from completely broken to working a bit. You need the next patch to get it working in a usable way.

This is just a quick hack so far which worked for me but your mileage may vary!

I don't know how you're supposed to submit patches here so I did mine with diff -urN old-src/commin_interface.c src/common_interface.c. To apply it you just go to the src directory and do 'patch < libpciaccess.patch'. If there's some other way it's meant to be done then please let me know.
