Ah, I was being a bit slow. In Adams updated vaio_gfx_config it does
the xorg.conf swap. I clobbered that when I made Rutgers
changes. Putting those changes back in removes the need for the
rc.local script. It seems to work but the nouveau blacklisting is
unreliable.

There is a nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf in /etc/modprobe that should
blacklist nouveau but it doesn't seem to work. So I've also added it
to blacklist.conf

I wonder if it will be reliable. But it's a lot better with Rutgers
changes.
