   I have an old Matrox video card that I can't find out much about. It's
actually two cards sandwiched together. It looks vaguely like a VME card
but has connectors on the side and not on the edge of the card. The
connectors look like S-bus connectors like those used in Sun computers.
There is one connector in the middle along one edge and a second identical
connector offset to one side. The video connector in on the metal mounting
plate on the opposite of the card from the S-bus connectors. It's a 13W3
type connector like those used on many SUN, HP and SGI computers. The card
is marked Matrox Electronics Systems SG3-1152B/BASE 0385-06-02 Made in
Canada Copyright 1990". The only reference that I could find on the net says
 "I found an old triple-width,
> dual-sbus slot graphics card made by Matrox and labelled an SG3.
> When booting NetBSD/sparc is identifies it as a cgtwelve."

  Anybody know any more about it?
