This is completely unrelated to this bug. 'nomodeset' effectively
prevents nouveau from loading, hiding the issue. This bug is about
nouveau in Precise kernel (well, for other reasons in Oneiric too), not
about the Nvidia blob. 'nomodeset' has no effect on the Nvidia
proprietary driver, because it doesn't support kernel based mode setting
anyway.
