Some additional comments regarding the 855patch workaround:
The workaround only works if 855patch is invoked before trying to start Xserver. 
I the Xserver is started (and crashes) before invoking 855patch, 855patch will
fail claiming that it can't find the location to patch, meaning that the BIOS
present different views of size the video memory depending on how you check it.
Addning nocheck to 855patch, to make it patch anyway will succeed, however the
Xserver will still crash on startup.
