I recently updated my system with pacman -Syu; everything worked fine, but since I've rebooted the machine, running 'startx' causes X to start, I see the 'nvidia' logo flash, and then crash.
I updated 'nvidia', but now when it starts it complains of being unable to allocate DMA memory and aborts.
My Xorg.0.log is here: http://sprunge.us/GOLS
I had pretty much the same problem (same error in the log), but i could get X to start by just doing % rmmod nvidia % modprobe nvidia After every reboot I had the same problem. To solve it I did % mkinitcpio -p kernel26 and after that everything was fine, I didn't have to downgrade anything.
