Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Very similar symptoms to bug #257894 but that was closed and the
recommendations in there do not resolve the problem for me.  The last
comment in that report is to file a new bug if anyone has similar
difficulties, so that's what I'm doing.

The VGA output from my Eee PC 900A goes black after a random period of
between about 20 mins and a couple of hours.  Switching back to the LCD
works fine and switching back again to the VGA output does not help, it
remains black.

I have tried the suggestions in 257894 but they have not helped.  I also
have another Eee PC (a 701) with the same OS and the same problem.

Thanks for your help.
