I don't think the `nouveau` kernel module is a viable option on newer NVidia cards. I have a laptop with a 1050Ti and nouveau flat out doesn't work - it either black screens or freezes at some random point after showing the display. This is cross-distro; I have the same problem with Ubuntu Bionic,

I have an HP Omen with Core i7 integrated Intel graphics and an NVidia 1050Ti. With recent versions of the kernel (Ubuntu 18.04 and Arch) it is unusable if the standard Linux "nouveau" driver gets loaded - screen freezes, sometimes black screens. I've had to blacklist it (modprobe.blacklist=nouveau

What's the current state of Fedora with regard to Nvidia graphics hardware? Should it just work? On a machine with GeForce GTX 1060, Fedora 28 suffers badly from freezes and slowdowns during boot, unbearable slow mouse movement on the GDM login screen, then more freezes before GNOME Shell appears
