Well, what is connected to the GPU? E.g. what monitor, projector or 
other display device do you use?

What happens is that only 64MiB is assigned to the device and for some 
reason a process (maybe the compositor?) Is trying to do double or 
triple buffering and doesn't has enough memory for that.

So it falls back to single buffering, that might work but will probably 
not look as good and you see tons of error messages.

You most likely can go into the BIOS and reserve more memory to the GPU 
(it will just be stolen from system memory).

Regards,
Christian.
