Please open a bug, attach both config files. It would be useful if you
also identify on which options it breaks. Liberte, last I looked, has
quite a few hardening features off. Pay attention to GRKERNSEC_IO,
PAX_PAGEEXEC, PAX_KERNEXEC, PAX_MEMORY_UDEREF.
Make sure its not a toolchain issue. It is not if you keep everything
the same and just boot on kernel and it works, the other and it doesn't.
I don't have this card so it would be difficult for me debug this for you.
