That's actually kind of weird.  The pre-G80 code in the nv driver should
support virtual panning just fine.  (Though I'm amazed anyone uses it.)
Can you file a bug with the complete log please?

The above log snippets were taking from my machine running Fedora 8. The virtual keyword works fine on F8, despite what the messages say above. I only use virtual screens to give me a taller screen size. I don't particularly care about horizontal panning around the screen as well.

Are you saying that the virtual keyword is still supported by RH in F9? Is that what you want me to file the bug report against?
