Description of problem:
So I tried the Fedora 14 Nouveau Test Day live images today on my Dell D630 laptop with: nVidia Corporation Quadro NVS 135M [10de:042b] (rev a1)

(1) First I ran it with both of my screens attached. I was greeted with the blue Fedora logo boot screen on both displays. After the Fedora logo "filled up", the screen went blank and soon presented me with a corrupted image on my 1st (Laptop) screen (image attached). The second screen was entirely blank at this point.

So I proceeded with Shift+Ctrl+Alt+F2 to the VT and was presented with a screen split in two, with two simultaneously blinking cursors (image attached). It's not visible on the picture, but the cursor is "striped" vertically, looks something like: |||||||||||
However this VT was not functional; typing anything does not have any effect. Ctrl+Alt+F1 brought me back to the corrupted screen and I could switch back and forth.

By pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del in the VT, I managed to reboot the system -- the blue Fedora "Restarting..." screen did not appear, just continued with two blinking cursors until the BIOS screen.

Since I did not get a working display, I was unable to capture dmesg or Xorg log files.

----

(2) So I unplugged the second screen and tried my luck again. After the blue Fedora loading screen, I was presented with a text mode screen with some messages in the middle. It blinked a few times and then reimained stable:

Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 180x56
fb0: nouveaufb frame buffer device
drm: registered panic notifier
Slow work thread pool: Starting up
Slow work thread pool: Ready
[drm] Initialized nouveau 0.0.16 20090420 for 0000:01:00.0 on minor 0
modprobe used greatest stack depth: 4160 bytes left
dracut: Starting plymouth daemon
composite sync not supported
eth0: no IPv6 routers present

So in short, Xorg did not start. Xorg.0.log from this boot is attached, as well as dmesg.out.

On VT2 I could successfully log in as root and execute commands. I also tried manually launching "xinit" to no avail.

When shutting down, the blue Fedora boot screen worked this time.
