Update: same issue in Fedora 8 (PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 3 of device 0000:05:00.0 (video card)), Nvidia drivers fail to load.

I also get the same memory error in openSUSE 10.3 *BUT* the proprietary Nvidia drivers load regardless.

One thing I noticed different with openSUSE, is that after the memory error, AGP is disabled ->

<6>PCI-DMA: Disabling AGP.
<4>PCI-DMA: aperture base @ 4000000 size 65536 KB
<6>PCI-DMA: using GART IOMMU.
<6>PCI-DMA: Reserving 64MB of IOMMU area in the AGP aperture

My boot log is attached if that helps.
