How did you disable it?  The message "uma_memory_start=...." shouldn't
appear if CONFIG_GFXUMA == 0.

Help us understand what the desired behavior is.  I'm looking at
dbm690t/mainboard.c wondering why uma_memory_size = 0x8000000; when
CONFIG_GFXUMA == 0.  It doesn't make too much sense to hard code the address
there.

HIGH TABLES just puts the ACPI tables in higher memory.  It's not that bad,
but there are a few kinks to be worked out.

Something else I don't understand is why UMA allocation is saved until
enable.  Shouldn't it be done with resource allocation?  It doesn't make
sense to do it after the tables are written.

Thanks,
Myles
