I had this bug since version 2.2 of the Intel driver, including 2.3.2.
When I upgraded to the git version from the 2.4 branch right before the
2.4 release the bug was gone. I always used the Xserver from unstable,
currently 1.4.2.

How long did you test? Sometimes I could use it for a few days without
getting the blank screen. But it still happened after some time when I
tested 2.3.2.
