Ram sizes 2048, 4096 result in corrupted display, larger ones result in
sigint 11 crashes of the server.
I just noted that the last commit of the xf86-video-mga driver at
I'm facing the same problem [in Ubuntu, actually]. I guess it is related

(II) MGA(0): VESA VBE Total Mem: 1664 kB
You'll notice that 1024x768x16bpp = 1536kByte, which fits in the
detected RAM, while 1024x768x24bpp
