Yes, the issue with this is:

xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.15.0+git20110706.0be47f45

If you are using an Intel graphics chipset (I have a Thinkpad with a
similar setup and had similar issues).

The best way to work round this for now is to download and install:

https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa/+build/2589725/+files
/xserver-xorg-video-
intel_2.15.0%2Bgit20110624.471115a9-0ubuntu0sarvatt_amd64.deb

(From page https://launchpad.net/~xorg-
edgers/+archive/ppa/+build/2589725)

This should get round things for the short term.

I also noticed when I installed any later versions of this package that
were built between now and 471115a9 that my X display would randomly go
black and refuse to switch modes (i.e. switching to a TTY by pressing
Ctrl + Alt + F2, etc wouldn't switch the display, but otherwise did
allow me to switch to TTY to gracefully reboot by three finger salute).
Likewise SAK (Sys Req + Alt Gr + K wouldn't reset X)
