Hi there!

I can't run Xorg with Nouveau.
I use gentoo-sources without proprietary BLOBs (gentoo-libre).

Nouveau doesn't use any binary blobs so your kernel wouldn't be the
issue. Has the proprietary driver ever been in use on your system and if
so did you fully remove it along with all the modules? Another possible
solution would be to try a newer version of xf86-video-nouveau and
libdrm. The output of 'lspci -k' might give you a hint.

No.

I've updated xf86-video-nouveau and libdrm. Same result.

What are you trying to say?

lspci -k:

Are you by any chance disabling KMS on boot? If not then I'm not sure
where the problem is.

How to check this?

Well if you have a framebuffer and get output from 'dmesg|grep
nouveaufb' it's a safe bet that KMS is enabled. Also make sure the
kernel isn't being loaded with 'nomodeset'. If its just not loading on
its own then adding 'nouveau.modeset=1' will make sure it gets enabled.

dmesg | grep nouveaufb shows nothing.

Are you sure?
I've been told that this is not supported.

Check to make sure the driver is compatible with your nv9x chipset.  I'm
your xorg log it doesn't show that one as being supported.
