There are some other bugs related to 4GB memory or more: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450432 (reboot on X startup on Radeon HD2400) (similar to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16768) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450247 (failure to start on Intel G35) Can you check if a BIOS upgrade is available for your machine?
