Caught a message in /var/log/messages about the time Nouveau went out to lunch:
Oct 22 19:40:12 one kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: EvoCh 0 Mthd 0x0000 Data 0x00000400 (0x1002 0x01) This was with kernel 2.6.38.8-server-10.mga on Mageia 1, and I don't see any other version number in modinfo output. The graphics card is an Asus ENGT430. Motherboard is an Asus P6T6 WS Revolution. CPU is a Xeon W3680. At about the time this message was written, the system had been driving two monitors. A number of Firefox and other assorted windows were on the first monitor, and Mythfrontend was playing on the second (hanging a few pixels into the first due to a separate X issue). The first symptom was the mouse cursor disappeared. Window focus and such was perfectly fine, but the cursor was not visible. Then, in a minute or two, the cursor got trapped on the second monitor. A little later, the whole display basically locked up. Reloading the module, logging back in, and starting X again cleared it up. Does that message tell anything that might help reduce the frequency of the display going out to lunch, requiring a reload of the Nouveau module?
