Public bug reported:

When plugging-in an external monitor on my MacBookAir3,1 using a Mini
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.
