A couple of things to validate would be which kernel modules are built in, and which modules are loaded dynamically, and which are actually loaded. Do you have a dedicated GPU, or use shared video memory, and do both kernels load the same graphics driver? Also, compare the output of dmesg | grep BIOS-e820 | grep reserved (ought not to change on the same maching, but you never know).
