I've also got this bug.

Sony vaio VGN-FW340D:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
Ubunto 9.10 Karmic
2.6.31-15-generic-pae #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 16:12:10 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

It seems that whenver you plug an HDMI cable from TV to computer it
completely locks up the computer.

No keyboard response, not even the Magic Sysrequest keys work.

If the computer is rebooted or started from shutdown with the HDMI cable
already plugged in, it works fine.

Even if you boot with HDMI cable  plugged, after you're done with the
HDMI, if you unplug, it will completely lock the computer.

I've found the only work-around is placing the computer in standby
first, then plug in the HDMI cable, then wake from standby. Works fine.
Unplugging the HDMI cable will also completely lock the computer unless
you suspend computer first, then unplug HDMI cable, then wake from
suspend, again.

If there's a fix, I'd appreciate it.
