 Hi,
 I have noticed a slightly similar problem in FreeBSD 6x:
 When I run some OpenGL(*) hack with XScreensaver, the screen either
 remains black or gets corrupted. Sometimes the screen contains garbled
 and legible remains of already closed windows :(((. 
 
 (*) I did not verify the OpenGL hack is running at the moment of
 corrupted display, but since they stopped working in xscreensaver-demo's
 preview window,  I saw a garbage there too, and 2D hacks work OK, I
 strongly suspect so.
