Actually, I would send the output to nVidia..SuSE can't really do anything because it's most like a problem with the nVidia Xserver which is binary only and can't be modified...so they couldn't fix any issues if they wanted to...unless it's a sax2 problem or an Xfree problem, then they might be able to do something. This is the major drawback with closed source drivers.
Gather your output and send email to nVidia with the exact information.
