Great, thanks for testing the fix. I've pushed it to xf86-video-ati Git.

I suspect one of two things is happening here:

1. These pixmaps exceed the maximum width/height supported by the 3D engine.
That would really need to be handled by the compositing manager earlier on.

2. The X driver fails to allocate GPU accessible memory for these pixmaps. Do
you get 'Failed to alloc memory' lines in Xorg.0.log or the X server stderr
output? What's the version of the kernel running when this happens?
