Thank you for the report. It is not trivial:
> I had to remove the 'nokmsboot' kernel parameter manually,
> or: # grub-mkconfig > /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
> If you don't do that nouveau is not loaded and
> if you load it manually the X-server still won't start

kernel Drivers dont change kernel options, drakx does... If you had used drakx to change from proprietary driver to free one , it would have remomved the nokmsboot Status:

After installing and uninstalling dkms-nvidia390 I had to remove the 'nokmsboot' kernel parameter manually, which had been inserted on install. > mv /etc/default/grub.old /etc/default/grub > mv /boot/grub2/grub.cfg.old /boot/grub2/grub.cfg or: grub-mkconfig >/boot/grub2/grub.cfg If you don't do that nouveau is not loaded and if you load it manually the X-server still won't start.
