I'm having this problem with an Intel GMA videocard.
Sometimes it works to just kill gnome-screensaver, and today I managed to recover by killing 'compiz' with a 'SIGUSR1' (after already having killed gnome-screensaver). I wasn't able to check whether compiz has a nice "restart self" command, but at least this command effectively restarted compiz and a few seconds later I had my programs back.
