Hello François, Thank you for your report. I'm not sure we should blacklist nouveau by default in the nvidia-cuda packages, since they do not depend on the nvidia-driver packages (I believe Cuda can be used without the latter). It could leave users with a broken system. Andreas, Vincent, What do you think about this? Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
