Looks like such a hard crash, that logs do not get to disk. Can you try the
suggestions in http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/HangDiagnosis to get a
kernel log showing the crash?

Can you reproduce this without nouveau_dri.so?

Also, might be worth to try with the latest git nouveau kernel modules
(requires a kernel upgrade for you).

Is this a regression, have you ever had a situation, where the test apps do not
cause a hard crash?

Errm, "Couldn't set console screen info." sounds weird, are you sure SDL is
using X here, and does not attempt to use, say, SVGA or kernel framebuffer?
Does 'su root' allow you to start any X applications, that is, does it preserve
DISPLAY environment variable for you? Try starting e.g. xterm from a 'su root'
shell.
