Hello Ben,
I am here with a regression in the current 3.6 tree.
I just tried the latest tree from Linus (g26d29d0) and while nouveau
does find my card and its two connected displays, the ouput is somewhat
garbled: the colors are way wrong. For instance, the text console is a
pale green instead of the standard gray and gdm login screen is what
gnome 3 looks like when you're on LSD: flashy with shiny rainbow like colors...
The graphic card is an old Quadro:
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV37GL [Quadro PCI-E Series] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: NVIDIA Corporation Device 0215

On Fedora f18 default kernel, this is what nouveau says (on a plain 3.6 it works too):

Is there anything I could do to help? Verbose output?
