The actual Nvidia drivers from Nvidia? That's great news. In the past, it has always been quite a bit of a struggle to get nouveau fully blacklisted, and has made me dread new installs.



I was very careful in my base install to ensure Nouveau wasn't included initially or updated in.

Fedora makes this far easier as there is a kernel module (which sits in RPM Fusion) that will download proper driver, install driver, strip nouveau, modify x on boot. But I'm not sure what changed in Fedora23 but I can't make boot-able USB's anymore. It just hangs on an early memory mapping error.
