Disable "nouveau" in Fedora 13/15 - For install CUDA Driver

Refer to: http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/mjm-fedora-nvidia.html

Due to the inclusion of nouveau in Fedora 11 and newer, it must first be disabled. After this step, a reboot is recommended.

Fedora 12 and Fedora 13

Solution A:

1. Edit (as root): /boot/grub/grub.conf
To the end of the default kernel (usually the first), edit the kernel line.
Add the following: rdblacklist=nouveau to the end of the kernel line.
2. Added "blacklist nouveau" at the end of "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf".

# Listing a module here prevents the hotplug scripts from loading it.
# Usually that'd be so that some other driver will bind it instead,
# no matter which driver happens to get probed first. Sometimes user
# mode tools can also control driver binding.

Solution B (not verify):
-OR- Modify the initramfs:

[mirandam@charon ~]$ su -
Password:
[root@charon ~]# mv /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r)-nouveau.img
[root@charon ~]# dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)

[root@charon ~]# exit
