What incantations does one need to use and how many times does one need to wave a chicken foot while doing so to get rid of the nouveau driver in Milestone #2, please? :-)
I want to install nVidia driver 319.23 but it won't "go in" because the nouveau driver refuses to be dismissed even though I have removed it using YaST and it is blacklisted in all the right places. :-(

I have not had a problem using the blacklist. # cat /etc/modprobe.d/50-disable-nouveau.conf blacklist nouveau options nouveau modeset=0# cat /50-disable-nouveau.conf blacklist nouveau options nouveau modeset=0
Thanks for this, Sid, I don't have a 50-disable-nouveau.conf but the disable is in 50-blacklist.conf. But I will now create this 50-disable-nouveau.conf and see what happens.
319.23 module fails to build. There is a patch (http://pastie.org/7942599) to allow it to build for the latest kernels. The patch is called " pastie-7942599.diff". Referred to on https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/543728/linux/building-nvidia-driver...
Regards Sid.
I've had no trouble with compiling the 319.23 with the 3.9.x kernels at all, and if I remember correctly I even compiled it with the Milestone #1. It's with M#2 that I am having a hassle for some reason because I cannot get rid of the nouveau driver. Let's see what happens when I create this 50-....file.....
