Hi Christoph

Looking in your log many(most) of the ERROR messages are 3D/GL related

On top of that please note that there has been a bug in kernel 2.6.39 that
causes the system to hang when Xv is used in conjunction with 3D(GL
app/game/compositing window manager)

Can you try the following
1. Remove libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental and/or update your kernel to 3.0

Note in general (with nouveau) it's recommended to try the latest (git) version
of the following

1, kernel [1]
2. libdrm -- in your case it's not necessary
3. xf86-video-nouveau
4. optional mesa

Can you give the suggestion(s) a try (I highly recommend removing
mesa-experimental just to narrow down the issue)

Cheers
Emil
