I have attempted using the mem=nopentium option. I'm still getting lockups. I noticed the last couple of times that the lockup occurred simultaneously with a key press (but not mouse movement). This may be a red herring, though.
Noticeably, /var/log/messages reports receiving the kernel message "[drm:radeon_freelist_get] *ERROR* retruning NULL!
