I think you're looking in the wrong place. I think you need to take the reference to rivafb out of your X configuration file.
Actually, this is a non-issue. The rivafb module is a loadable driver, and does not conflict with the NVidia driver unless it's loaded, which it won't be because you're using NVidia.
I have an NVidia card and have always ignored the rivafb message. No problems here, other than being very careful that I've recompiled the driver for any kernel upgrade.
Check the archives for this topic; it's come up many times.
