I had downloaded the driver from nvidia and installed it without any errors.
I have also blacklisted nouveau in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
If I have the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf then X fails to start.
And if I do: X -configure I get the error:
Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices. Configuration failed.
If I delete xorg.conf (generated by nvida install), then X starts, but this happens:
