I am facing a similar problem. I bought an ASUS 20" monitor a few days back and this problem started creeping in on my system. before this, it wasn't an issue. It happens 4-5 times in an hour for me though. I just can't get any work done on my laptop :(. The only way out is I have to hard power-off. Also, i could easily SSH into my system from another machine. the following is my Xorg log:
