AFAIU nv was unmaintainable because of code obfuscation. nouveau is 
still quite young, of course it has problems. The only way to fix such 
problems is for users to report them and follow-up with information as 
needed, since developers can't have the whole range of hardware to test 
compatibility with all chipsets.

The example you posted in the other message is definitely better than 
shell (which is the language of current initscripts).
