Not sure about the Intel HD, but for the nouveau module it looks like you will need to install a kernel with nouveau support. Look for "linux-libre" and follow the instructions to prepare a libre version of the Linux kernel. Then configure, compile, and install it using kernel-package. I use 'make menuconfig' for configuration, and the nouveau module is in Device Drivers > Staging Drivers > Nouveau. It works fine for me, with the exception of rendering my text console useless.
