Description of problem:
Attempted to run the tests on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2011-02-22_Nouveau

I downloaded the x86_64 live image from http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/gfx_test_week_201102/gfx_test_week_20110221_x86-64.iso

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot the above linked ISO image
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

After the grub menu, I get a splash screen for a few seconds, and then
the screen switches back to text mode with what looks like the tail end
of an oops. The scrollback doesn't work, so I can't see how it started,
and I don't have a serial console either. At that point, the machine is
hung completely. Magic sysrq doesn't work, and the num lock LED doesn't
light when pressing the num lock key.

I get the same, even if I select basic video driver from the grub menu,
so I'm guessing it's not directly related to my graphics card. I tried
booting without quiet and rhgb to see if I could get any more information,
but that didn't reveal anything more.

Expected results:

Did the final F15 release have these issues for you?  Do you still have problems with the latest 2.6.40.x kernel in F15?
