I donno how many times I rebooted my machine, but now it definitely will die
earlier...

here my findings:
I kept the userspace patches and tried kernel with and without tiling patches -
no change, still crashes. Then I installed a newer distro kernel (maverick
backport of 2.6.34, running Ubuntu lucid) -> works.

To make the long story short, crash or not to crash depends on whether plymouth
is started or not. Uh! I normaly boot my self compiled kernels with "verbose",
while the distro kernels boot with "quiet splash".

I guess plymouth initializes something the ddx doesn't.
