This morning I did something different: Install the GTX 680, then run MS Windows.
Started fine -- so no HW porb with the card 3min later the GEFORCE program asked me to upgrade the driver firmware. I did for safety. I went back to NetBSD, did 'disable nouveau' and configured X windows. Restart the system without 'disable nouveau' ... IT WORKED!! Aparrently the prob was the nVidia driver in the firmware....
