The bug was filed and resolved at freedesktop.org
The bug can be found at : https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6849

The fix suggested is to use the "LinearAlloc" option. Adding the
following line to the video device section fixed the issue.

Option "LinearAlloc" "8192"

Thanks, Please close this bug.
