Video-Nvidia and Video-Linux

Hi guys,
I want to use the open source nvidia driver for my 750 Ti, so I did the “auto install open source driver” in the hardware configuration - however, it seems like both video-nvidia (proprietary) and video-linux (free) are installed. Should I manually remove the video-nvidia driver via:
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia


also seems like there is a conflict when I list the drivers:

Thank you all for your time.

After uninstall all nvidia packages, you should uncomment nouveau in /etc/modprobe.d/mhwd-gpu.conf

thanks, by “uncomment” you mean remove the word “blacklist” from the nouveau line?
do I reinstall the open source driver after uncommenting?

Put a # in front of blacklist noveau

So it’ll become

# blacklist nouveau

It did, but had to remove everything Nvidia.
