Bug 611427: nouveau module loaded, although blacklisted
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=611427

------- Additional Comments from David Ward <david.ward at ll.mit.edu>
After uninstalling xorg-x11-drv-nouveau, the 'nouveau' driver did not load. 
However xorg seems to have autoselected the 'vesa' driver now over the 'nvidia'
driver.  From /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

To back this up, running 'nvidia-settings' returns: "You do not appear to be
using the NVIDIA X driver."
