(The original kernel panic messages would be needed.) Actually, it looks like you have a 64MB aperture and with either a 32MB or 64MB aperture this loop runs off the end of the GATT (GATT has 16384 entries * 4 bytes == 64k == 16 pages on x86) so if it dies before it starts the next loop that might explain it. The patch below makes it walk the full GATT reading the first word from each page to force a flush w/o walking off the end of the GATT. Actually, this is what appears to have happened: (gdb) set $start = 0xd4d05000 (ag_virtual) (gdb) set $fva = 3570491392(eva in trap_pfault() frame) (gdb) p ($fva - $start) / 4 $2 = 17408 That's well over your current ag_entries of 16384.

The Linux AGP driver has the same code. It appears to be forcing a read of the TLB registers to force prior writes to clear the TLB entries to flush perhaps? I'm not sure why you are getting a panic.

I'm in no way familiar with X. That said: you're using an ATI Radeon card, yet the kernel crashed in agp_nvidia.c. nVidia != ATI.
