... remainder is 128"

I get this lines since a few weeks on every ~second boot. I can't bypass it or ignore it, just a reset helps. The screen comes right after the mounting of the partitions: The monitor goes black (earlier than with a regular boot), flashes up white again and goes back to black and then it comes. Can someone help me here and give me a hint what causes the problem? DRI is something with graphics, right? Maybe the *cough* Catalyst driver for my Radeon HD 7770? (I'm using 13.4-3 from the unofficial repository in the wiki, this is the stable version.) Or something completely else? And if this is Catalyst, WHAT does it want to say to me?! Would be glad for any hint.

Thank you. I have tried this but it hasn't helped. Fortunately, the problem is gone with the latest updates.
