If you use nv, and get a black screen, then return to VT, does the VT reappear
on the screen, or does the screen stay black?

Since randr12-less nouveau and the nv driver are pretty similar, can you see if
nouveau works if you add 'Option "randr12" "off"' to the device section of
xorg.conf, then run it after the blob (similar to how you say you can get nv to
work)?

If this works, keeping randr12 disabled in xorg.conf, register dumps running
nouveau before (black screen) and after the blob (working) would help. Make
them by doing:

git clone git://people.freedesktop.org/~stuart/radeontool
make
./radeontool regs > logfile
