VIA AGPGart problem

Hi,
I have encountered problems with the following hardware

Via EPIA M-10000 mini itx

The machine is stable when using either the normal VGA text mode or the Frame buffer mode.
However, all hell breaks loose whenever X starts.
The following tests were done :

with agp enabled
run Xorg with the via driver -> X dies after a couple of seconds
run Xorg with frame buffer -> X dies after a minute or so

with agp disabled
run Xorg with the via driver -> X dies after a couple minutes
run Xorg with frame buffer -> machine is useable, but don't push it...

in all the above instances, either X dies without cleaning up after itself (and not logging anything useful), yet the machine is available through ssh, or, the machine is completely hanged, probability of each of those occuring seems related to the phases of the moon...

hope this helps

Raphael
