This was fixed once, but since the latest kernel updates (3.3.0) - the problem
has returned:
Since last Cauldron kernel update, I have two nvidia based system which
now fallback to nouveau when starting X - stating nvidia cannot be
loaded.
checking in dmesg - I see that the nouveau driver grabs the card before
the nvidia driver can - but trying to remove the nouveau driver wants to
remove over 800 packages!
How can I get the nvidia proprietary driver back??

You could try blacklisting the nouveau module - but that won't fix the
underlying issue - it may however get you working as a temporary fix ;)
