I have used Sil SATA controller, Matrox g550, few NVidia cards and two Radeon ones (HD5450 and R240) with APM Mustang (also X-Gene1 like Gigabyte). All with 64KB kernels.
Have you tried any of the above with kernels that have 4KB pages? 64KB memory pages aren't merely inefficient, they are a complete show-stopper for me.
No idea when last time I used 4KB kernel. Fedora had such but was switched to 64K as well.
I rather suspect Gigabyte firmware having some issues. Try booting with "acpi=off" and proper DTB to make sure that it is not ACPI related?
Can you elaborate on the firmware and DTB issues you are suspecting
My playing with PCIe graphic cards ended with Mustang firmware updates to get PCIe working better. I suspect that Gigabyte has those changes but maybe still something is not done properly.
and where to get better firmware and DTBs?
firmware? Gigabyte (as board vendor) DTBs? kernel
