dmesg output

On a desktop machine which was previously using the nvidia propritary driver successfully attempting to boot with nouveaufb results in a "GPU lockup" message during boot and hangs if X is started eventually resulting in a colorful, but useless, display which can only be corrected with a reboot.

I first noticed this problem with kernel 3.3.2 and the 0.0.16_pre20120322 of the nouveau driver and replicated it with the most recent git versions of the kernel and xorg driver.

Would you mind retesting with the latest kernel (3.10 is fine) and posting dmesg from that if it's still broken?
