Well, no luck so far... But here are some excerpts from log files that might
help someone see what my problem is:

Your insight is greatly appreciated.
It seems you`re loading nouveau instead of nvidia. If that`s the case, you might have to blacklist nouveau kernel module somehow (which seems odd considering that I didn't have to do anything). Did you install F13 from scratch or did you upgrade from F12?
I`m not at home right now so I can`t check my configuration files, but I`ll do that as soon as I can and see if that's anything that could help you.
