Bah!  According to those logs everything appears to be working fine.
They do indicate that you've got an external monitor plugged in to what
the card believes is an HDMI port, though.

Do you have an external monitor plugged in?  If so, could you try
booting without it plugged in?  If not, this could well be a part of the
problem.

Secondly, it looks like vga16fb is loading for you; that has, in the
past, interacted badly with nouveau.  We've made some kernel changes
that should prevent vga16fb from loading.  If you test a more recent
LiveCD you might find that this is fixed.
