Hmm yes, something close to that, sorry. I reverted the patch by copying back
the older nv04_crtc.c file and as it was older than the nv04_crtc.o the
compiler did not recompile the object file. I did it again and the system
started fine. It chose some funny 158x60 text mode on nouveau module load with
tiny letters. 

So the configuration is which was intended last time. Debian experimental
kernel, video=nvidiafb:off argument. Your last patch only.

Do you need any kernel or register dumps?
