I'm trying to install proprietary nvidia graphics driver I downloaded from nvidia website. It will not install because it says that the "Nouveau kernel driver" needs to be disabled first.
I opened synaptic and uninstalled everything that had nvidia, nouveau, or jockey in its name. It still won't work.
What exactly do I need to do to disable the "Nouveau kernel driver"?

All links above are correct, however you must run
sudo update-initramfs -uso the initramfs can be purged of nouveau
