[WARNING] fglrx invalid map error killed my system after 3 weeks

Hi! I had to re-install my entire archinstall 64bit after 3 weeks of usage. I noticed when my system froze during a reboot the /var/log it self were going over 9GB!!!!!!!!!!! And that was because the kernel generated tons of errors concering catalyst 9.4-9.5.

I couldn't check the xorg log since my system died trying to start X (kde4), but it was blank. 9GB that's insane if you ask me, and all the errorrs were related to catalyst "fglrx fireq invalid map handle".

I tried running cat/nano on the error logs but that also generated in a massive hardware freeze (fans spins down) no wonder since the logs were filled with tons of errors.

Is there a way to tell the kernel or w/e to shut the hell up? No seriously, I don't want to re-install my laptop in less then a month.

I know amd/ati doesnt support the 2.29-30 kernel yet but is there a way to silence the errors?
