Of course, I don't keep unused drivers.
Your setup is very special. You will need to reconfigure several things
depending on whether nvidia gpu is available or not, e.g.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf, the libGL.so.1 selection, ...
xorg automatically depends video card and uses corresponding driver.
I don't have any problems with libGL.
Please have a look in /etc/default/nvidia-kernel, you can disable creating
the device there.
Bad idea, because I'll need to create them manually, when I use nvidia card.
Feel free to provide a patch for /etc/default/nvidia-kernel that checks
whether nvidia video hardware is installed and skips device creation if it
can be safely said that no such hardware is available. Do not assume lspci
etc. are installed everywhere, so fall back to device creation if you can't
properly check for the device.
May be udev should create these devices? udev loads modules for kms
drives. OK
nvidia doesn't use kms, but I quite shure, that xorg loads nvidia driver (if
nvidia card presents), not udev by accessing /dev/nvidia0 or /dev/nvidiactl,
anyway xorg loads modules for non kms drivers.
