Title: [i915] external monitor goes black for several seconds at a time, randomly Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: At times it is completely debilitating; at other times it does not happen for hours. The physical connections are clean and solid. I guess the attachments will show that I'm using Intel graphics hardware. The monitor is a very popular Samsung one.
