I haven't a clue - you need to send your XF86Config file and log file
along with a decription of the problem.  Also make sure that the number
your use in the 865patch number line is greater than the number you
specify in the VideoRam section of your config file.

We really need to see your logfile and config to be of more help.

 This is my log file generated before I use the 865patch, the log
 generated after I use de Patch a can't copy, because when I use the
 instruction 865patch 65536, my machine display the message cannot
 display this mode, the system is locked and I can't do any more. Tell

try using a lower amount of memory. You shouldn't need this much.  Try
8192 as a start.  If it still doesn't work, you could try switching VTs
and copying the log file (Ctrl-Alt-F1 (or F2-F6)).

If that doesn't work, just boot to a text-mode after the crash and copy it
from the command line.
