It is supposed to be. Feel free to investigate why it's being loaded
(I do not own any nvidia hardware).
Also, please double check that you do not have an empty
/etc/modprobe.conf file.
Ah, I didn't realize that was a problem (it wasn't mentioned anywhere
/usr/share/doc/). After removing /etc/modprobe.conf, everything works fine.
Shouldn't the effects of having an empty modprobe.conf be documented
*somewhere*?
