Not too much information there to "compute", yet 
Hmm..are you sure you have the modules? 

The output of these following commands should give enough information why
it does not work: (note the quatation marks are ` not ' )

# script
# ls -l /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/video/matrox
# grep matrox /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.dep
# lspci | grep -i Matrox
# grep -A 5 -B 2 mga /etc/X11/XF86Config
# grep fbdev /etc/modules.conf
# modprobe -v fbdev
# dmesg | tail
# exit

(if you used the "script" command, the file "typescript" will have the log of
that stdout+stderr output the other commands made)
