3.2 release candidate, which is available at:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2-rc1-oneiric/

Bug description:

  DisplayPort to DVI adapter my system freezes for a few seconds (screen
  doesn't update, can't type or move mouse, etc.) and the following
  errors are generated:

  For as long as I keep the external monitor plugged-in the intermittent
  freezes and errors continue. In System Settings -> Displays clicking
  Detect Displays doesn't detect the external monitor.

  System recovers and acts normally when I unplug the external monitor.
  I had been using this monitor just fine daily for months with Natty
  and the nvidia proprietary drivers.
