matroxfb: non active head doesn't update

I just upgraded from 2.4.9 to 2.6.10. I have a G100 quad, and VCs on
multiple heads. With 2.4.9 if I ran programs on two heads they would both
update the screen. Now only the one on the current VC updates, and the
other head is frozen until I switch to its VC. I remember some older
kernel versions being like this too. Is this a bug or do I have to
reconfigure something?

My lilo.conf has `append="video=matrox:sgram video=scrollback:0"' which
used to be required to work around some problem(s), not sure if it still
is.
