I am working on a few fixes to make sure that the nvidia devices are
removed before the nvidia modules are loaded (I think this is what is
going on in your case), and that booting in intel ("Power Saving") mode
doesn't mislead GDM into using PRIME when the NVIDIA GPU is actually
disabled (this causes booting or logging into a black screen).

None of this will require blacklisting the nvidia module in the
initramfs. We have been there in the past, and it is not needed.

I am going to provide a PPA for Ubuntu 19.10, so that you can test the
fixes.
