Yep.  Thought that was part of the PCI spec, though maybe I'm confused with
66MHz.

umm.. I thought cardmode MMIO was working now on B/C/J class machines.
I think D/K/R still have resource management issues.

I think this may well be the problem.  I bet Dino hasn't been programmed
to forward the 16MB range at f900'0000, and Linux has just found an
unused bit of address space and allocated it to the Matrox card.
