Kernel log from boot

Problem:
    Can no longer start x server.

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Boot the computer
Expected behaviour:
    User expects to reach the login prompt.
Actual behaviour:
    X Server fails to start

History:
    Updated to latest kernel on Fedora 17 x86_64: Linux version
3.5.0-2.fc17.x86_64 (mockbuild-pT0yeVfQFYmUpIjiNHrHsa8bZ1dH7QcMqApY+AHhFKvYtjvyW6yDsg@public.gmane.org) (gcc version
4.7.0 20120507 (Red Hat 4.7.0-5) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Mon Jul 30 14:48:59 UTC 2012
    Rebooted
    Saw fedora begin to boot up, but instead of being presented with a login
screen I saw noise/leftover images from previous boot
    X server terminated and I saw some nouveau errors on screen:
        [   43.155163] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO - playlist update
failed
        [   53.020045] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Failed to idle channel 1.
        [   57.019076] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO - playlist update
failed
        [   60.017783] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Failed to idle channel 2.
        [   64.016807] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO - playlist update
failed
    The screen then went back to noise/leftovers for a few seconds, then
displayed those error messages again in sequence
    This continued endlessly until I boot with the previous kernel.

Hardware information:
    The model is a GTX 580m. According to the wiki, this is an NVCE (GF114).

        This is the kernel log from the boot with the new kernel. The Fatal X
server error and the PFIFO errors can be found near the end of the log. If I
had let the computer keep running, the last few messages would have looped,
presumably endlessly.
        NOTE: THE LOG CAN ALSO BE ACCESSED HERE - http://pastebin.com/rrVddzgq

Thank you for taking the time to look into this matter. Please let me know if
you require any additional information.
