if you dropped to runlevel 3, installed the NVidia binary and returned to runlevel 5, the nouveau driver will not be loaded if the install was successful.
In the past (I think on 11.4), I have found nouveau to be included in the initrd, and blacklisting it failed to stop it being loaded. Since then I always just uninstall xorg-x11-driver-video-nouveau then run mkinitrd again, just to be sure... I have never needed to do anything to nouveau. I just install the driver, whether by package or source and it just works. Don't even need to use 'nomodeset' though the documentation says it needs to be done. -- Roger Luedecke openSUSE Ambassador Ind.
