In the 2.4 kernel this test in mm/mlock.c limits page locking to half
of physical memory...

        /* we may lock at most half of physical memory... */
        /* (this check is pretty bogus, but doesn't hurt) */
        if (current->mm->total_vm > num_physpages/2)
                goto out;

Maybe that test is being confused by the presence of video memory somehow.

If you're looking for kludges, try commenting it out to see what
happens.
