Chris,

The underlying problem is still an issue with the NVIDIA driver's
handling of offscreen windows.  An upcoming NVIDIA release will resolve
it.  This fix is to partially help so at least people can lock their
screen and suspend/resume and still get the dialog. (Better than
nothing)

I can confirm what Chris Coulson says here about windows still appearing as
white if they are created when the computer is not showing my VT as the
active VT.
