Xorg log

Hardware: MacBook Unibody (5,1) with nVidia 9400M

Software: Arch Linux x86_64 fully up-to-date with a custom built 2.6.32 kernel,
xorg-server 1.7.3, xf86-video-nouveau 0.0.10 (git 20091207), nouveau-drm 0.0.15
(git 20091206)

Symptoms: as soon as the nouveau module is lodaded (in early or late mode) the
screen's backlight goes off. The console is fully functional even though it
isn't shown. As soon as X starts the light come back on and everything
works,
even though some artifacts are shown on the top before the login manager
appears. Going back to a console with ctrl+alt+fn makes the cursor disappear,
but the image doesn't change, and pressing ctrl+alt+f7 makes the cursor
reappear and X refreshes again.

Possibly related: resume doesn't work, even with s3-bios, s3-mode and
vbe-post
quirks.
