Description Steven Usdansky 2013-02-14 00:45:42 UTC 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0
Build Identifier: 

In a normal boot with any version 3.8 kernel, when modesetting is attempted, the monitor loses the signal and never gets it back.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install any version 3.8 kernel
2. Boot into that kernel
3.
Actual Results:  
Monitor loses signal upon modesetting

Expected Results:  
Normal boot

Modesetting works properly with 3.7 and earlier kernels. Onboard Nvidia GeForce 9100 graphics, Soyo monitor. Monitor gives bad EDID; but custom xorg.conf file has aleviated that problem. 
My current working config for Rawhide:
 kernel-3.7.7-201.fc18.x86_64
 xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-1.0.6-3.fc19.x86_64
 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.13.99.901-4.20130109.fc19.x86_64
