Have you tried "forcing" it to use nouveau (by removing nv or by
explicitely specifying nouveau in xorg.conf)? It would be interesting
to see what happens.

Aside from that, can you provide output of lspci -v, to see what
module is claiming it? Probably nouveau, and that's an explanation why
nv fails.
