Still haven't got this working but here is some more information I've discovered.

GeForce GTX 560 code name = NVCE (GF114)

NVC0 family: These cards are generally working with the latest kernel and Mesa but may still have power management issues. It is recommended to use the Linux 3.1 kernel or newer (or a backported driver from this kernel).

NVC0 is supposed to be currently working with nouveau drivers. (http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix)

It seems that a firmware file (?) might be required but from Linux 3.1 onwards it can be generated automatically.
