I think the problem is that the X server does not yet load the nouveau
driver by default, this should be fixed soon. Until that happens you
need a minimal xorg.conf, see
/usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/examples/xorg.conf. Running
Xorg -configure should not be necessary.

…I get the same error. The generated xorg.conf.new file seems to work,
though.
