  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  I use my laptop (1st gen Macbbok) with external monitor. The display is
  a HP w2207h, and the resolution is 1680x1050.
  
  I can change the resolution without problem. Then the monitor is slip
  away few hours later. I try restart the X server, but on the monitor I
  doesn't see anything. So I get a black display on HP's screen, and on
  the Macbook's monitor I see the GDM.
  
  I can't find anything in the logs, everything looks good.
