Lots of these kernel msgs:

Jan 18 12:44:16 P5K-EWIFI kernel: [  239.545107] radeon 0000:01:00.0: 
couldn't schedule ib
Jan 18 12:44:16 P5K-EWIFI kernel: [  239.545109] 
[drm:radeon_cs_ib_chunk] *ERROR* Failed to schedule IB !

Have to keep resetting x server several times to get normal gnome 3 desktop.
