Thanks Xavier and Marcin for your quick answers.

Xavier, I had noticed the extra lines regarding AGP x8 (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/nouveau/+bug/564617/comments/3).
What is sure is that I did not touch anything inside the PC, or in the BIOS.

Is there an easy way to test with an upstream version of nouveau? I might run a liveCD, or even install another OS if it's really necessary.

Marcin,
I tried the "video=vga16fb:off" parameter : I can see the ubuntu logo, but then I only see grey lines on the screen (see attached photo)
Then, the PC seems frozen : I can only do a hard power-off
You'll find the dmesg and corresponding kern.log attached
