Well, here are all the logs created in /var/log during a reboot with --verbose after ‘dkms remove -m nvidia -v 185.18.36 -k $(uname -r)’. As you can see, gdm started too early to find the nvidia module that dkms was still in the process of compiling. The nvidia driver could be loaded fine manually after the compile was done, and the next reboot worked fine with the nvidia module already compiled.
