No. MDA uses a fixed standard register location to program its hardware.
The two cards would conflict. Unless your MDA cards are pci based or they
can change their register location your out of luck. Sorry. You can run
MDA along side VGA. I do it all the time at home.

Strange. My system works fine here. I assume you have vgacon as well. What
do you see printed out on the VGA monitor when you insmod the driver?
