Don't we need to move xorg-server 1.8 and friends, too? (Mostly due to abi/api changes in the nouveau module) Or does xorg-server 1.7 work with the new kernel? (there is a chance I am mixing up things)

xorg-server 1.7 and its drivers work fine with the 2.6.34 kernel, it's just nouveau that is broken because ABI changes inside the kernel module. We should move xorg-server 1.8 and all related things to extra though. At this moment the kernel is holding up xorg-server, so there's no reason not to move them together. Kernel 2.6.34 is not a hard dependency for xorg-server though, but it contains so much bugfixes that I don't want to suggest older kernels with it.
