The vesa and fbdev errors were always there, those two are potential fallback drivers. What's new now is that instead of nvidia-utils installing a xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf, X has been patched to load nouveau, nv, nvidia, in that order. Since you don't have the first two installed, and you shouldn't if you want to use the third, you'll see error messages for them. It's normal.
