Xorg.log when the problem occurs

Hi,

I've a strange problem:

When I load nouveau at boot it doesn't load correct. X doesn't start (see attached Xorg.log) and the resolution of the console doesn't change.

When I start X with the nvidia driver first, then go to a console, stop X, unload nvidia module, load nouveau -> nouveau does work.
When I just load nouveau without that nvidia stuff before nothing works.

Sorry for that.

There was an old nvidia module which were loaded at boottime (without mentioned anywhere) and therefore it doesn't worked.
