When you go into VC2 what does "lsmod | grep nouveau" show? I've found that I've been having to manually "modprobe nouveau modeset=1" since doing my update about 4 days ago. I'm not sure why nouveau won't load and I find that if I don't set the modeset=1 when I do the manual modprobe that I still can't get X.
