[Mageia-discuss] alpha: how do you get rid of nouveau?

[blind Pete]

My test computer has an old nVidia card in it.  

Mageia 3 alpha installs quite happily on it, but 
it won't boot to a GUI.  It gives error messages 
about nouveau, even though the modules has been 
deleted and XFdrake run to try "nv" then "vesa".  

BTW there is also an EDID check sum error from 
the monitor which could be confusing things.  

There is a repeat of 8 lines of hex data and
[drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: DDC responded, but no EDID for VGA-1
