You were quiet right:

% zcat /usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/NEWS.Debian.gz
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (1:0.0.16+git20100518+4b8f1a0-1)
experimental; urgency=low
* This version of xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is linked against a newer
libdrm-nouveau which breaks the ABI and is not compatible with kernels
<= 2.6.33. You need to upgrade the kernel to 2.6.34-rc1 or newer.

And the 2.6.37-trunk version in experimental solved the issue...
I had apt-listchanges, but it's quiet overwhelming, I still have
apt-listbugs though, :-) Perhaps I should try installing it again...
I recon my bad for not having listchanges, but I'm wondering why not
having the package dependent upon kernel >= 2.6.33? Any ways, not an
issue, :-)
Thanks a lot,
