[Nouveau] GF114 [GeForce GTX 560 Ti] (rev a1) slow and flickering display

[Sid Boyce]

I recently replaced a 8600 GT with the above card on openSUSE Tumbleweed 
x86_64.

The screen now flickers and when I change desktops it takes a some 10 to 
15 seconds to display the new windows.
e.g if I change from desktop 1 (konsole) to desktop 8 (thunderbird) it 
switches but konsole is displayed for 10 to 15 seconds before 
thunderbird appears.

Occasionally the screen flickers wildly before settling down again.

I don't see any errors in dmesg.
