Yes, the screensaver kicked in...might be having problems coming out, not 
sure. You can try ctrl-alt-backspace to kill and restart X.

Disable the screensaver so it doesn't kick in.

The other possibility is that you have a BIOS setting that will shut the 
display off, but doesn't come back to the system. If that is the case turn 
it off in the BIOS.

My bet is on the screen saver, ctrl-alt-backspace will restart X.
