Okay. I do "official" package builds of R for RHEL/CentOS as part of the
EPEL repository:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

If its not painful for you to do so, testing my packages vs yours just
to rule out misconfiguration in R would be helpful. I don't think this
is likely, but I'm being thorough.

Okay. Nouveau is _not_ the NVIDIA driver, that's the open source driver
provided by the Linux kernel. It is possible this is a bug in nouveau.
You may want to try to install the NVIDIA driver and see if it resolves
your issue:
