X log file

Description of problem:
I have tried to install F10 snapshot 3 DVD, snap3 livecd and F10 preview liveCD
both were unable to start X out of the box

by inspecting the logs (with #fedora-devel) it was nv which claims the resource but when it later decided that it can't handle my card, it did not release them which made the fall back to vesa to fail

How reproducible:
alway

Steps to Reproduce:
boot F10 liveCD on 


Additional info:
I did not have this problem in F9
