Now I tested it and the ONLY way I can reproduce it (both syslog bitching and
display corruption) is:
- starting kdm
- logging in via kdm into kde aka KDE spash screen.
It looks like this

The background should be blue, there should be a kde splash picture and
obviously the fonts shouldn't overlap. Again to repeat: disabling dri fixes
it.

Afterwards I simply use X for a little time and apparently correct data finds
its way into videoram then :-). I am unable to reproduce either display
corruption or syslog entries later.

Perhaps there is another place where ModeInit is run AFTER some initialization
was done already?

Anyway it seems stable now, I am unable to reproduce any hangups I was
previously experiencing.
