How do you fare with xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.12-21.20090403git11be9a9.fc11?
This is more than likely fixed already, can you confirm that things improve after installing updates?
He was running from a live CD. Davide, you can try with the Fedora 11 Beta (not sure the driver in that would be new enough) or snapshot release to give it a shot. Just running the Rawhide installer but not actually installing may also be enough of a test, I think, as it should try to run in graphical mode with nouveau.
I have the same video card and X/nouveau is crashing on shutdown/restart. Sometimes the screen just freezes ( mouse still moves) and other times i see " freeing fifo 0" or similar printed out to the screen. Except for the damn shutdown/restart problem the driver appears to be working great.

This is a separate bug, can you file it as such and provide /var/log/Xorg.0.log etc? Also, try and reproduce with the nv or vesa drivers!
Created attachment 342894 [details] screen corruption on shutdown/restart I applied the updated initscripts-8.95-1 from koji and i am able to shutdown/restart now. See Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495326 The shutdown/restart is still NOT so smooth ( fast BIOS beeps and screen corruption .. see attachment) but it does shutdown/restart now but not without a struggle. Note: The vertical line you see on the desktop moves horizontally across the screen upon shutdown/restart.
Bruce: Ben asked you to file a separate bug. Please do. Discussing multiple different bugs in one report simply doesn't work and leads only to confusion.
