I have the same problem (for the last few years, using both open & closed |
| 15 |
source radeon drivers). The last time I looked for a fix it involved |
| 16 |
building a special initrd to allocate memory manually (or something like |
| 17 |
that). I'd love an easier fix if it exists. |

PS. Can you Shift+PageUp/Down when in console? I can't and assume that this |
| 20 |
is related. |
