That's a common problem with 32bpp. Many gfx cards can't deal with the data rate -- what you see are aborted PCI transfers. Try using 16bpp instead. You might also check what kernel change exactly caused that. I'd start checking the changes in drivers/pci. If you are still using 2.4.4 try to upgrade. IIRC there was a broken pci quick for some via chipset some time ago ...
