Kernel 3.2.3-2 will not initialize my Radeon based laptop

[don fisher]

Title says it all. On boot I received a blur of messages, something 
about not being able to allocate a specified amount of memory. These 
messages are not logged anywhere I know of. They used to go out the 
serial port and could be linked to another machine, remember that DB9 
socket:-) How does one handle problems like this. Last time I was using 
Fedora I was building my own kernels.
