In Hardy I can VT switch and switching to a terminal and back restores the 
screen.  Here's what happened today:
 - Xubuntu Hardy beta live CD
 - Insert CD, boot to desktop
 - wait several minutes with no mouse activity
 - screen goes completely blank
 - move mouse
 - screen came back
 - wait few minutes
 - screen completely blank
 - move mouse
 - mouse pointer appeared but screen still blank, mouse responds to movement 
and cursor changes when hovering over a text field for example, computer 
appears to respond to input (clicking etc.)
 - VT switch to terminal 1
 - VT switch to terminal 7
 - screen came back to normal.
