It looks like the VBE hardware state buffer for your video card is larger than the 4k currently supported by connector. The problem should be easily fixed by setting CONNECTOR_MAX_MSG_SIZE in include/linux/connector.h to e.g. 16k. I've already updated the patch on my website, so next time you download it, the error messages should be gone.
