Quite possibly you may achieve the same effect by addind a file
/etc/modprobe.d/nouvaeu.conf with 

   blacklist nouvaeu

in it (unless this module is loaded behind a modprobe back).
Possibly you need to rebuild initramfs after such change.

If it works then you do not have to remove/rename anything.
