I have the same problem. When I connect external monitor to DVI output on my laptop, screen blinks in intervals of several minutes and after a while, screen suddenly change to one of this colors: black, white, blue or grey. The time after it goes out differs, it is between few minutes and few hours. Recently it occurs every time I connect external monitor. This bug makes external monitor practically useless, as to get it back, i have to restart computer. No play with xrandr can help. I did not have this bug on Gutsy (same laptop, same monitor).
