I saw that on some of our machines and I think it has
to do with changes in the nvidia driver that don't fit
well with our cards. Going back to the driver version as of
some days go fixed this.

(IIRC it's /sys/src/cmd/aux/vga/nvidia.c and 
/sys/src/9/pc/devnvidia.c; although I'd also go back to
the /lib/vgadb of the same date just for sanity).

I don't understand why this did fix your problem; although
I'd like to. Maybe I'm wrong regarding the nvidia thing.
