Hi,

Having a  video card of type Nvidia GeForce FX5200 (PCI), and running my 
F13  with nouveau.

1. If booting graphically (RHGB), then my box *hangs* immediately before 
the gdm greeter should appear. No input possible, only Ctrl+Alt+Del for 
  reboot (If pressing ESC during the RHGB boot, I can get rid from this 
  behaviour, similarly to boot without RHGB). This happens since the 
yesterday's (friday) updates.

2. No such behaviour if booting completely without RHGB. Then the gdm
login runs properly.

Anybody has an explanation for this? Any comments are welcome.
