Suse 9.3 or kde problem with closing lid on IBM Thinkpads

I just installed 9.3 and it's great, but I have a Thinkpad X40 which has a problem with the screen. If I close the lid and then open it again, I get about 5% of garbage on the top of the screen. It then offsets the mouse location so I have to click about 5% higher than the actual button. Anyone know how to fix this? I've been running sax2 and just testing the config to reset the screen, but I'd like to not have to do this. Also, I set the action for closing the lid in the thinkpad config to not do anything (turned off suspend). Thanks to anyone who can help... Khanh Tran Network Operations Sarah Lawrence College
