--- Comment #27 from Christian König <deathsimple at vodafone.de> ---
Well that's interesting, according to the logs you are running out of GART
memory (which is 512MB in size) just 7 seconds after boot, and that is really
odd.

Could you please tell me what the heck you're doing to run out of memory? Is
there some kind of animated splash screen running or something like that?

I think that this problem shows up when you're tight on memory AND try to use
VM at the same time. Probably we're missing some return value check or
something like this.

Anyway, as Alexandre Demers pointed out simply disabling VM should also help.

In the meantime I will try to test the VM implementation under memory pressure,
maybe that will yield some results.

Cheers,
Christian.
