If there's two adresses in the startup log, do "cat /proc/pci" and 
look for that one, which is marked as "prefetchable". 


write:
         VRAM adress         VRAM size
               V                V
echo "base=0xe0000000 size=0x400000 type=write-combining" > /proc/mtrr

Then do cat /proc/mtrr and check if that works.


Of course, You must have mtrr support compiled in.
