Reason for closing: Won't fix
Additional comments about closing: Use testing. There's no way to get nouveau working again with old kernel and latest libdrm. The broken dep is only a minor issue and can't get fixed anymore.

use the xf86-video-nouveau pkg from testing together with the new kernel. you cannot mix extra/testing packages.

I have not configured testing repo in pacman.conf, so I'm not mixing extra/testing.

The packages in extra can't get fixed. Latest libdrm breaks nouveau in extra. And this can't be fixed because it requires new nouveau code that requieres new kernel. So either use testing kernel + nouveau-drm + xf86-video-nouvea (recommended) or go with another driver (nv or nvidia or vesa).
