changing the vramlimit improved things somewhat for me, but my system
still became unusable after about five minutes.  ..using stock Ubuntu
kernel.

Note that disabling the sideport ram in the kernel seems to be what
works best for people -- those are the only reports which I've seen that
haven't come back later and said "oops, no, I was wrong, it's still
broken."  ..however, installing a hacked BIOS which allows you to
disable the sideport ram isn't exactly a fix, and since this is my only
computer currently, and my source of income, I can't exactly risk that.
