[MPlayer-users] mga_vid shows only green area

Hi,
I have problem running videos on my Matrox G400DH card using "-vo mga". 
Every video I try to play shows only green rectangle over console and 
nothing more (sound goes ok). When I switch to use vesa, vesa:vidix, 
fbdev or fbdev:vidix, everything is ok (TV-Out works with fbdev and 
fbdev:vidix, but it looks kinda slow, even on Celeron 1GHz). I've 
followed all DOCS (which are sometimes a bit unclear in this) how to 
setup both kernel and mplayer to work with mga_vid, but still no 
success. I've tried both compiled in main matroxfb and matroxfb as 
modules. Other matrox specific parts (matroxfb_crtc2 and matroxfb_maven) 
were always as modules.

Output of mplayer when using 'mplayer -vo mga -double -fs file.avi':
