You need to blacklist nouveau in two places if you want to use the nvidia binary driver. You need to blacklist it in grub with rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau nouveau.modeset=0 as kernel parameters in /etc/grub/default and with a file in /etc/modprobe.d that does the same thing such as:

Code:

$ cat nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf 
# generated by nvidia-installer
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
