[opensuse] Screen Saver Engagment Fails (11.3)

Hi,

On a new 11.3 installation using the commercial nVidia driver (version
256.35, though the symptom also occurred on the earlier version just
replaced a few days ago by 256.35), whenever the screen saver should
engage, I just see a very brief flash on the screen. I interpret this
as the screen saver starting and immediately stopping. I've tried
several different screen-saver modules, but always with the same
effect. I also tried setting the monitor power-save timeout to be less
than the screen saver timeout, and when I do this the power save _does_
engage.

All the details are available in this bug report:

If anyone has seen this and especially if you've solved it, please let
me know along with any interesting new details or information.
