I will try that.

Sorry if it was not clear. The -aa kernel crashes _only_ when I have agpgart 
and radeon support (either as modules or as built-in the kernel). If there is 
no agpgart and radeon support enabled, it does not crash.

Here is my current .config. While this one doesn't have modversions enabled I 
have seen crashes even when it is enabled.
