I do not experience this pagefault on that laptop either. I also have a box running nearly the same hardware and the same GTX560Ti, but FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT, and this box' OS is also built via CLANG. There is also no issue. Maybe it's an BIOS issue triggered by the BIOS. I guess, I can not circumvent any debugging ...
