I checked here (with 256MB VideoRAM set in BIOS and i915 loaded) - all is stable now. dmesg says: ... [ 0.985848] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: detected 65536K stolen memory ... Don't know where they have gone or who did reserve them. Maybe thats what Intel's "Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT)" uses? Isn't there anybody out who has more insight into this issue and could give some explanation how things should work and give hints how to pin that down? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
