lspci -vv output, filtered to show nVidia GPUs + the main GPU

Hello,

Anaconda locks up on a machine with nVidia Tesla GPUs, with the symptoms described here:

http://groups.google.com/group/puias-users/browse_thread/thread/045e1761c45a679e#

Starting the installer with rdblacklist=nouveau nouveau.modeset=0 enables it to work.

Once the system is installed, doing modprobe nouveau modeset=1 hangs the system with the following messages :

[drm] nouveau 0000:02:00.0: failed to load fuc490c
[drm] nouveau 0000:02:00.0: PMC - unhandled INTR 0x08002000

the last line being repeated ~15 times.

Attached is the output of lspci -vv for this machine.
