    Hello All,

    On reboot or shutdown my display becomes un-readable with random lines
    (garbage) throughout the entire screen. I have no other problems with the
    display any other time, except during reboot or shutdown. If any one can
    please shed some light into a possible fix it would be greatly appreciated.

    -----------
    Dell Inspiron 8600 Laptop
    Nvidia GeForce FX Go5200 64Mb
    15.4 inch Ultra Sharp WSXGA+ 1680x1050

    YaST Desktop Settings
    ---------------------

    Monitor: Dell 1600X Laptop Display Panel [28-85kHz/40-90 Hz]
    Resolutions: 1680x1050
    Color depth: 24 bit

    Software
    ----------

    Thanks,
    Shaun
