Thank you, Hans. My laptop has an Intel chipset, so nvidia doesn't apply. I think the recommended driver for my chipset is the framebuffer or vesa device, but I may try reinstalling the Intel driver to see if that fixes it.
Maybe the approach you need is to purge the Intel Xorg driver: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-Debian-Abandon-Intel-DDX -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
