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 http://ten.panorama.sth.ac.at/pictures/sshot.png 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.
