I tried Mike's solution, but the problem remained. I also called Onkyo
support, and the rep there had me try a few things but none worked.

It seemed like the change in resolution shown in the upper-left corner via
the receiver's OSD was an important clue. Although I had explicitly set the
resolution using the Nvidia settings GUI, I saw that there were a few
option in the xorg.conf file that I didn't understand (these were related
to GPU and SLI). After writing a new xorg.conf file from scratch, it seems
that I've fixed the problem. I can now turn the receiver off and on without
losing the picture. I suspect that my problem was different than the others
on this thread, though the symptom appears to be the same.
