using nouveau on NV17 kills the KDE VNC server

I connect to a distant desktop using VNC. The environment is KDE and I use its
VNC server, krfb.

The adapter is as following:

  01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go]
(rev a3)

Using nv, I used to connect and disconnect several times a day.

Using nouveau, I can only connect once. The second time, vncviewer fails.

I only close the vncviewer window between the tries.

I tried "-log *:stdout:100" to get maximum information but nothing
more is
printed.

Nothing is printed in syslog nor Xorg.0.log at the moment I try.

Last ouput of syslog is:

I have a nice .xsession-errors that I'll attach afterwards.

At least a better backtrace or some more information is needed, if you want any
hope of this getting solved.

No, I wouldn't be available to track this down. I dropped all KDE and
don't
intend to try it again for long.

Mass reopen.  The "LATER" resolution is lame, I'm deleting it. 
Consider LATER
to have arrived.

Reproduced using vncviewer 4.1.3, ddx cf65b875, drm e6a062c2, and krfb from KDE
3.5.7 (openSUSE 10.3) on nv34m.

Backtrace looks like:

#12 0x08055601 in _start ()

I'm content to call this a krfb bug; it seems ridiculously easy to make the
tested KDE3 version fail in a number of ways.  The KDE4 (4.1.3) version of krfb
doesn't show it (though at depths != 16 it suffers
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162493 ).
