Thanks for checking.

The nouveau changes between 3.2.23 and 3.2.30 were:

 86fccf3 nouveau: Fix alignment requirements on src and dst addresses
 e3b0eeb drm/nvd0/disp: mask off high 16 bit of negative cursor x-coordinate
 705924f drm/nouveau: fix booting with plymouth + dumb support

Your card is an NV44 (GeForce 6200 TurboCache), and if I understand
correctly, 86fccf3 and e3b0eeb should have had no effect on that card.
So there is more to learn here.  I look forward to seeing what the
logs from booting with nouveau say.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
