I think I found out where the blacklist of the nouveau driver comes
from: On my system it was installed by the proprietary nvidia driver and
hasn't been uninstalled on the removal of this driver again when
switching to the open-source one.

I see, but why does "dpkg -S" say it's from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau?
Also this should have been purged, but wasn't probably because of errors
when trying to do so:

Ok. That blacklist file comes from the xorg-edgers PPA linux-backports-
modules-nouveau package. We should document that better - or fix it in
the PPA packages, but it's not a bug in the Ubuntu packages.

nouveau package, or in the versions that shipped in
intrepid/jaunty/karmic. Did you install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau from
a PPA or anything, previously? The current package changelog doesn't

you what package it belongs to.

The driver is there in the initramfs. Maybe something in the initramfs
is blacklisting it, though?
In a tmp directory, run:
zcat /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-19-generic | cpio -id
and look for any occurrences of 'nouveau' in etc/modprobe.d/ (seems
unlikely, since we've already rebuilt the initramfs
