Should I blacklist the nouveau driver to force loading of nvidia?
Yes. And you may also have to adjust the INITRD_MODULES="..." variable in /etc/sysconfig/kernel (remove nouvau if it's in there, add nvidia). Then run mkinitrd.
Done, no change, still using nouveau.
After changing this, you have to re-create the initrd. Did you use the mkinitrd command?
BTW:
a) there's sax3 in the repos, no idea how that works though (see before sig)
I tried. It doesn't seem to be very useful right now. It created 99- saxdevice.conf, 99-saxmonitors.conf and 99-saxscreen.conf in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and the device section knew just Intel driver. After changing to nvidia, X didn't start. I deleted those configuration files.
It might have caused the intel graphics controller to work, after you created a new initrd (and maybe rebooted from it).

For me, a simple "modprobe nvidia" works.
[ 179.017] (II) NVIDIA GLX Module 319.32 Wed Jun 19 14:55:38 PDT 2013 [ 179.017] Loading extension GLX [ 179.017] (II) LoadModule: "nouveau" [ 179.018] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/nouveau_drv.so
This should not happen, since the module should be blacklisted (see Andrey's post).
IIRC it prints the generated config on stdout and does not overwrite /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but better check that resp. save a xorg.conf if you have one.
On http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Configuring_graphics_cards under "5th thing" it is written that 'Xorg -configure' will create the file /root/xorg.conf.new.
HTH, -dnh, whose xorg.conf is largely the same as the XF86Config that I used since ~1999 starting with SuSE 6.2 / XFree 3.3.6 ;) Twice I tweaked the Monitor section, a couple of times the Device section, and a few times the input sections.
