In the laptop where it works with the alternative nouveau package, is a T410, so a NVS3100M
On my workstation where is completely broken, it is an older card. GeForce 7300 GT. Before updating to Factory it was working fine with the blob.
About nouveau: I am quite shocked to find out that the driver package that makes gfx work in half of the machines out there is abandoned. This has a huge impact for end users. But lets do something about it. Initially I updated it to what I found in the Fedora LiveCD, but then I updated it to what the maintainer submited to rawhide. The maintainer should know what version is good :-). I also added a patch that he added on top for NV3.
