Thank you for that clarification.  To /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf, I added
this line:

options nouveau noaccel=1

And now I can use the Nouveau driver.  Both the text screen and the graphics
screen work.  Also had to make a config file for X to stop it from defaulting
to vesa, with "xorg --config".  I have HAL running, and seems without any
config file, X tries for the nv driver first, then fbdev, then vesa.  X is now
using Nouveau.

A clarification of my original report.  The computer did finish booting up.  I
just couldn't tell because the text screen was blank, the disk never quit
spinning, and I was still setting up the system and hadn't yet switched to
runlevel 5.  So long as it was trying to display the text screen, those errors
were being logged.
