Disable loading of nouveau driver for installing NVidia driver

[Mark Ryden]

Hello,
I tried to install NVIdia driver from their site for GeForce 8400 GS
display card.
I ahve F12 x86_64.
I downloaded from NVidia site this file:
NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-260.19.44.run which is a 64 bit setup for Linux
I tried to run it from terminal.
I got an error message that nouveau driver must not be loaded.
I cannot rmmod it because of dependencies.
The installer suggested that I will agee to add a file to
/etc/modprobe.d, which
will disable the installation. I agreed and it added a file named
nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf;
this file has 2 lines only:
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
Nevertheless, after boot, the nouveau driver is **still* loaded.
What should I do ?

rgs,
Mark
