I had some problems now and then, but currently it works fine. However,
it's a desktop card, not a laptop.

I think uvesafb is only loaded if you force it to (e.g. with the
video=uvesafb kernel parameter), and it's not even included in the
initramfs by default.
The Nouveau wiki¹ claims that handover from uvesafb to nouveaufb does not
work, but maybe this information is outdated.
