You are not really making it simpler by doing a lot of things you were
not asked to and not doing things you were asked to. Just saying...

I guess your system is in a state where the nvidia binary driver module
is not correctly compiled but the package is installed up to a point
where it prevents the nouveau driver to load. The package in question
would be called nvidia-<somethin>. Probabaly "dpkg -l|grep nvidia"
helps). Uninstalling jockey does not help because that is just the
helper that shows you the drivers, not the driver itself. So maybe
purging the nvidia package gets you into a state that uses nouvau and
from there the binary driver could be re-installed...
