I'll get the latest kernel and try it out. 

By the way, something interesting that I saw in my messages log:

[drm:mga_dma_buffers] *ERROR* mga_dma_buffers called without lock held
[drm:mga_dma_flush] *ERROR* mga_dma_flush called without lock held
[drm:mga_dma_reset] *ERROR* mga_dma_reset called without lock held
mtrr: base(0xd4000000) is not aligned on a size(0x1800000) boundary

And a whole bunch of them like that.

I'll tell you my findings...
