Once that said, I saw that it could be possible to use nouveau.modeset=0 on the grub line. I never tried that solution, but the perspective to have two differents driver loaded at the same time for one hardware just scared me. IIRC nvidia-installer (not nvidia.ko) has detection routine to know if nvidiafb is loaded, because it has produced well knwon incompatiblities from the past. I wonder if they have updated it for nouveau.
