I just enabled composite in xorg.conf (not enabled by default), and started
xcompmgr -a, and xv works perfectly now, thanks!

However I could not find anything when searching for this issue, is it
mentioned somewhere?
I did not find existing bug reports, and maybe this limitation could also be
mentioned on the main page ( http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/ ) since there
is a decent workaround.
