Nouveau is split into two parts, a kernel module (nouveau.ko) and an X
video driver (nouveau_drv.so). The kernel module includes a
framebuffer
driver that automatically uses the laptop's native resolution, see

Well, the nouveau framebuffer driver is the best for that, but it is
not
compatible with the NVidia 3D blob. That's why I suggested uvesafb.
