The nouveau.modeset=0 declaration should have also been removed when the nVidia packages were installed.
What reason would nouveau.modeset=0 ever have had to be included except to prevent use of the FOSS driver nouveau, IOW, to clear a path for the proprietary non-KMS driver to function correctly with a KMS kernel? Wasn't it expressly created for the benefit of the NVidia driver, though it also works for troubleshooting nouveau, and enabling use of VESA and FBDEV even when nouveau is available and would otherwise automatically be used?
Knowing what you know, Felix, this almost certainly has to be true. :-) But my system's nouveau driver was blacklisted when the nVidia driver was installed and that declaration is absent on my system: grep 'Kernel command line' /var/log/Xorg.0.log [ 9.325] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.7-24-desktop root=UUID=85a6f61c-8e11-4240-86d2-9b3ba908c048 resume=/dev/disk/by-uuid/456a524c-9adf-4472-8fb0-88bbdbd62b53 splash=silent quiet showopts regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
