The above is what matters most to me.
The other Radeon card does not work properly with Linux either, so, 
given the limited resource we have, I guess we should forget about it.

Notice, as I said previously, I'd be very happy to help debugging this: 
unfortunately remote GDB hangs. If someone could help me overcome this 
stopper...

I don't have access to this machine now; IIRC it's a Sandy Bridge 
Pentium (but still running 11.3).

If needed, I can get full data the first time I have the chance, but 
this is less important to me: I've been having corruption for years, and 
it's usually enough to minimize the windows and restore it, to make it 
go away.
The panic with the Radeon card is a much worse thing.
