I have the same problem on a Vaio VPCCW1S1E whic uses: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GT216 [GeForce GT 230M] (rev a2)
at the moment I cannot use driver nouveau (which actually cause my screen going black and making laptop useless) and probably cannot give useful report. As for the message #24 I installed on another kernel (2.6.31 the binary nvidia driver). Trying to load kernel 2.6.32-22 (the one which has nouveau installed and which is unusable) I managed to retrieve these information from kernel.log [ 17.911547] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810 [ 18.027788] Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 7.2, id: 0x1c0b1, caps: 0xd04731/0xa40000 [ 18.074948] input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio2/input/input9 [ 18.159632] alloc irq_desc for 22 on node -1 [ 18.159635] alloc kstat_irqs on node -1 [ 18.159641] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22 [ 18.159700] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 18.254920] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 [ 18.254933] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 18.257035] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: failed to evaluate _DSM: 5 [ 18.257561] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Detected an NV50 generation card (0x0a5500a2) [ 18.260526] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Attempting to load BIOS image from PRAMIN [ 18.370415] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: ... appears to be valid [ 18.370420] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: BIT BIOS found [ 18.370422] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Bios version 70.16.27.00 [ 18.370425] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Pointer to BIT loadval table invalid [ 18.370498] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: TMDS table revision 2.0 not currently supported [ 18.370501] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Found Display Configuration Block version 4.0 [ 18.370504] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: DCB connector table: VHER 0x40 5 16 4 [ 18.370507] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0: 0x00000040: type 0x40 idx 0 tag 0xff [ 18.370509] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 1: 0x00000100: type 0x00 idx 1 tag 0xff [ 18.370512] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 2: 0x00001261: type 0x61 idx 2 tag 0x07 [ 18.370515] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Raw DCB entry 0: 010003f3 00010036 [ 18.370517] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Raw DCB entry 1: 02011300 00000000 [ 18.370520] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Raw DCB entry 2: 02422362 00020010 [ 18.370522] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Raw DCB entry 3: 0000000e 00000000 [ 18.370537] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Parsing VBIOS init table 0 at offset 0xD52B [ 18.422679] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input10 [ 18.440051] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0xD84D: Condition still not met after 20ms, skipping following opcodes [ 18.470028] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0xD851: Condition still not met after 20ms, skipping following opcodes [ 18.500051] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0xDA0E: Condition still not met after 20ms, skipping following opcodes [ 18.500060] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Parsing VBIOS init table 1 at offset 0xDA3B [ 18.560074] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Parsing VBIOS init table 2 at offset 0xE7C5 [ 18.560095] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Parsing VBIOS init table 3 at offset 0xE803 [ 18.621690] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Parsing VBIOS init table 4 at offset 0xEA43 [ 18.621694] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Parsing VBIOS init table at offset 0xEAA8 [ 18.650057] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0xEAA8: Condition still not met after 20ms, skipping following opcodes [ 18.650071] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0xBE5C: parsing output script 0 [ 18.650074] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0xC257: parsing output script 0 [ 18.815991] [TTM] Zone kernel: Available graphics memory: 2013468 kiB.
