Also have you tried switching to a text console and back to the X session?
Ctrl-Alt-F1, then Ctrl-Alt-F7. I have a machine with an Intel video chip that
has some nice fuscia gibberish when I wake it up, switching to console and back
helps.

I have a HP DV9000 series notebook which uses a Nvidia GEForce 6150
video card. I am currently running kernel 2.6.22.13-0.3x86_64.

I updated the drivers using the "one click" install from the openSUSE
community web site. The new driver version is Nvidia 169.07.

Now, when the video goes to sleep say with a close of the notebook
case, when the case is re-opened, the display is not repainted
properly but is completely corrupted. I have to restart the X server
using <ctrl><alt><backspace> and log in again to get the proper
display. The same think happens when the display is shut down by the
power control process.

Try this...if you're using KDE, make all of your desktops have
a different background. Switching from one desktop to another
desktop will force a repaint of the whole screen.

Also ... check ctrl-alt-F10 for clues there
