Can I see the output of the "dmesg" command after a failed attempt at staring X?
Actually, nevermind! You have "nomodeset" in your boot options, nouveau does not support this option any more.
When I boot without this option the lid stay black.
Created attachment 407029 [details] dmesg [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Detected an NV50 generation card (0x0a8600a2) [drm] Initialized nouveau 0.0.16 20090420 for 0000:01:00.0 on minor 0 [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: called without init
"called without init" is from booting with nomodeset. For the blank screen, to have any idea I'll need to see your kernel log after booting *with* nomodeset. My suggestion is to boot with "nomodeset 3", and wait some time until you think the login prompt would have appeared, login blindly and type "dmesg > dmesg_kms.log" and reboot so you can attach the log. Thanks! Ben.

Ok, your panel is eDP (embedded DisplayPort) and not LVDS, which is not currently supported by nouveau. I have such a laptop on my desk at the moment, and have been working on figuring out how to program it correctly, I'll update this bug once there's something for you to test! If you have an external display, nouveau should be able to program that correctly still.
OK, thank you Ben.
If you update to kernel-2.6.33.3-73.fc13 (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=169330) there's initial support for eDP in nouveau. I'd love to hear how it works for you!
For now tested on RHEL6 (not sure how it depends on Xorg, Xorgs in F13 an RHEL6 could be different). Logs attached. If you need test it on F13 too let me know. Thanks, Tom.

Err, the logs you posted are not from the same card. The earlier ones were from an NVA8 mobile chipset with eDP, the recent ones are an NV86 desktop board (no panel of any time listed).
Created attachment 411202 [details] dmesg-33.3-73-RHEL6 Omg, sorry for that. Additional info: VGA works as expected.

Thanks! Oh that is strange, it doesn't look like your panel is being detected. Can you boot that kernel with "drm.debug=15" and attach a new dmesg?
Created attachment 411574 [details] dmesg-drm.debug.log Sure, here it is.
Created attachment 412264 [details] dmesg-33.3-85-RHEL6 Backgroung lid works, but nothing displayed. Gnome-diplay-properties identify display correctly.

One other small question which I forgot to ask before: Since you're booting with 2 displays connected, which one of them do the BIOS/grub screens display on?

I have having the same problem on a Dell Latitude E6510.

I installed F13 on release day using the Live CD, X was working fine. X has been working ever since & I'm now using the rpmfusion nvidia drivers. Thanks for getting this working for the F13 release!
Verified on kernel-2.6.33.5-112.fc13.
