--- Comment #14 from Alex Deucher <agd5f at yahoo.com> ---
It's not really a bug per se, the system is just out of memory.  Note that this
is system memory that you've run out of (not vram).  The radeon kernel driver
allocates system memory (kmalloc) for some structures that are used for
processing the command buffers from the 3D driver.  When the kernel driver is
not able to allocate that memory, it just skips the GPU command buffer since it
can't process it.  That's why you see the corruption; certain GPU commands
never happened.  You'd probably need to track down further what processes are
using large amounts of memory to see why you are out.
