I tried to upgrade my BIOS to the latest version from the ASUS website. The problem stays the same with the radeon driver.

Disable screen lock. - Wait one minute - The screen fade to black - The monitor indicate entering in power save mode, wait a couple of seconds. - Press a key to show the screen again. - The monitor turn on again but the screen is dark (but not as dark as when the monitor is off). I tried switching with CTRL-ALT-F1 to console but I don't see it. With another machine I can still login by ssh so the machine is not dead. I can also use the console to login and sudo reboot (without seeing anything). It happen once that I saw the Ubuntu desktop instead of a blank screen but the left border was shifted 80% to the right. The desktop and mouse was responsive but it is too weird to work with. Rebooting fix the problem. I tried different xrandr commands with ssh with another machine (--off, --mode to switch resolutions) but without success. As a temporary measure, I disabled the screen saver and the automatic lock. When I want to stop working on my computer, I do CTLR-ALT-L to lock and CTRL-ALT-F1 to switch to console. Then I manually close my monitor. When I come back, I open the monitor again and I switch to CTRL-ALT-F7. The lock screen is visible and I can unlock and work.
