<pre>Dear Mr. Deutcher, thank you for will and readiness to help in this problem!!
I am using radeon.gart=1024, it does not help.
Then I upgraded to Tumbleweed (3.11)
Glxinfo reports:
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org R300 Project
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RS600
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 9.2.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20
Then I added radeon.dpm=1, there are no information about dpm or
powermanagement what so ever in dmesg (unlike 5850 card that I have). I suggest
dpm is not supported on this chip. Not great deal, but for example, 5850 is
unstable withOUT dpm in 3.11.
Lastly, of course I read all patches and responses from people in these two
bugs, and tested first switching from 256 VGA memory to 128 via BIOS (only two
options), it didn't help.
Then I appended "radeon.vramlimit=64" to grub2 kernel line, updated grub,
rebooted. Nothing changed. I attach the screenshot showing the issue with
gnome-shell corruption and the login triangle issue, that is even more
agressive when system comes out of hibernation.
dmesg | grep -i radeon says:

I will test the patch today.
At your will, I will give you remote login to the notebook for any kind of
testing you so desire.</pre>
