Can I use a Matrox G450 Dual Head DIsplay Card on my Mac?

Currently I have a Rage Pro (AGP) with a VGA & a ADC connector. A friend gave me a second flat panel VGA monitor, and I want to do the "Seperate Mix & Edit windows with Pro Tools LE". Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanx

Matrox cards are not supported on any Mac running OSX. Your card will not support two monitors, even though it has two ports.

Best solution is to buy a PCI Mac Radeon card and use that to run a second display. You may want to make it your primary display, since the performance, even over PCI instead of AGP, will be better.
