Thanks Hans. 
I must add when shutting down I get a black screen with lots of text. The system will not shut down. I have to press the powerbutton and hold it to power it off.
After starting up again I performed  apt-get --purge remove nvidia-*

The output was:
root@debian:/home/piet# apt-get --purge remove nvidia-*
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. 

Well, it seems I would be running in circles then.
Any other idea?

Kind regards,
Aquarius
