One thing I forgot to mention is that these attempts to launch X are with the ATI proprietary driver. It exhibits nearly the same behavior as the radeon driver. The only difference is that if I use the ATI proprietary driver, it doesn't sit at a blank screen forever when I have 4GB in the machine, instead it exits with an error. Just like the radeon driver, though, if I take out 2GB, everything works fine. All those files were from the 64bit kernel. The results are the same with the 32bit kernel.

I kinda feel like this is some sort of MTRR problem, but I'm not really up on MTRRs and while I have tried fiddling with them a bunch in an effort to get it to work, I've had no luck.
