Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau

I can't boot Ubuntu 10.10 on my PC with NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 (PCIe 16x). Instead login screen I see [attachment DSC00391.JPG].
Ctrl+Alt+Del and SysRq+B don't work.
I must install Ubuntu from alternate CD and boot to text mode and uninstall these packages: nouveau-firmware, xserver-xorg-video-nouveau and install nvidia-current package.

Why Ubuntu use experimental (nouveau) driver?!? :
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - X.Org X server -- Nouveau display driver (experimental)
