To be exact -> none, but there are two ways to make it work.

1. Download the new XFree86 3.3.3 which has Matrox G200 Support.
2. Download the Matrox XServer from SUSE which also has it.

If you choose 1 you will have to get either the source from XFree86 and
compile it or download the RPMs from the redhat RawHide ftp site ->
rawhide.redhat.com/i386/RedHat/RPMS

If you choose 2 there is an RPM available from the SUSE ftp site.
