New Card G400, GPL doesn't work anymore Help

Hi all,
I just got my new video card a Matrox G400 dual head. Cool features and all
but....
My gpl doesn't start anymmore. It worked fine with my old tnt card wich i
took out but when i start gpl it does al as before (witch to 640x480) then
stays 640x480 and puts me back in low-res to my desk top.

Then all seems ok but my system is kinda unstable from then on. A restart
works fine but doesn't give me gpl. It works all fine in software mode but
i'm used 1024x768 now so please help me, i need my daily shot of gpl but
don't wanna dump my card, i really love the fact that i can use two monitors
now.

I've read many posts on the G400, and with over 30 posts, noone has
been able to get GPL to work with it. The G200 patch does not work, it
appears that your only choice is to go back to your tnt. Sorry!
