I  have checked the CentOS-6 rpm resources but did not find anything
mesa nouveau related. I do have a bunch of mesa packages installed, though.

Yes. xawtv works with nv driver, but not with nvidia proprietary driver
or the nouveau driver CentOS-6 has. I can live with that since I can
boot into any of these installations. The only problem with the nv
driver boot is that it cannot fully utilize my 24" LCD display - which
is OK. It looks like the CentOS nouveau driver is more stable than my
highly customized - and probably bugged up - Fedora-3 installation. So I
was happy to find CentOS-6 that works on my old 32-bit machine and has
the nouveau driver. Apparently the dri-vieux is missing somehow.

Strangely, I encountered the same problem when I updated the CentOS-6
according to its requirements, which included a firefox update. Now
firefox would not start because of the missing dri-vieux. So I reverted
back to the non-updated version of CentOS firefox, and it works again. I
will do some further research on a CentOS forum. Maybe that will fix
xatv as well. I'll report on it - thanks.
