I run fedora here, and not suse, but if I saw this on a fedora system, the very next thing I would do is reinstall my nvidia graphics drivers. Often, system updates step on the nvidia driver pieces forcing a reinstall.
There is also something new in Xorg for Fedora 12 ... an open source driver for nvidia cards called noveuau (probably have an off by one error on the spelling) is installed by default. This driver seems to work really well for 2d operations, but not for 3d, so I've taken steps on my system to disable it and install the nvidia drivers from nvidia.com Regards, Curt.
