>From your logs, it's clear that you've got some packages from xorg-
edgers hanging around.  Specifically libdrm2
2.4.19+git20100307.04fd3872-0ubuntu0sarvatt.  You can't mix-and-match
packages from the main archives & xorg-edgers - as you have found,
nouveau will break.

You should try installing ppa-purge from the xorg-edgers and running
“ppa-purge xorg-edgers”.

** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid
