dmesg|grep "nouveau|drm"
My HP Pavilion dv9560eg sports a 8600M GS video chip with a design defect (for the interested: http://www.scribd.com/doc/19308567/Nvidia-Class-Action).
Good thing is, under certain circumstances it may still be used.
1. Sometimes it boots up just normally and works for a certain time (hour or so).
2. If #1 fails I have to set "nomodeset" to actually see something, otherwise (when the mode gets set) the screen get white and fades to grey in an awkward
way. I can still blindly login or use ssh.
With "nomodeset" only the first line, otherwise all of those lines can be found in dmesg.
Unfortunately I haven't logged dmesg output in the few moments the machine boots up normally.

Again, I know the card is damaged somehow (had it repaired a few times, but problems reoccur always). But odd thing is, it still works in VESA mode - only 1024x768, but it works. When using your kernel parameter it dmesg stops here: [ 16.190148] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810 [ 17.009568] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0 [ 17.009574] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0 [ 17.011184] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Detected an NV50 generation card (0x086500a2) [ 17.015638] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Attempting to load BIOS image from PRAMIN [ 17.104300] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: ...
