Ok, Great!

I have made another patch that disables this call altogether.
As far as I can understand it programs some registers that are related
to AGP clocking and according to some guys inside ATI, it is North
Bridge and Radeon chip dependent, but I don't know jack about ATI HW
programming so I might be seriously off here.
My laptop seems to do well without reprogramming this register and it
manages to crash Yours (and crashed mine with old driver) so I think it
should be left untouched until we get more information on how to do it
properly.

Can You please upload this patch to bugzilla instead?

If anyone tests the patch on some other thinkpad model please post it to
bugzilla so I we can get an impression how well it performs as well as
update the whitelist.
