Title:
screen goes completely black during usage then comes back

Bug description:
Hi,
just upgraded and rebooted (been quite a while since I rebooted so lots of
things probably changed in the mix).
The system initially logged in and my screen layout was lost (instead
ie, the monitor on the left was on the right). I changed that back,
logged out and back in.
Now, occasionally and seemingly randomly the larger display goes black for
1-2 seconds during usage.
It often occurs when switching desktops via hotkeys, but sometimes at other
random points.
After playing a bit, I'm pretty sure the reason is that I'm getting
the vesa driver instead of the intel one.
