Since upgrading to 16.04 on an X250 and T450s, I have had screen
blanking issues with external displays on both machines. When the screen
is more "active", such as when watching YouTube, the screen would go
blank for 2 - 3 secs, then come to life again. The more "active" screen
is the one that would blank.

I would see related kernel messages (IFO underrun) sometimes, but not
always.

I've just spent some time testing various kernels and can report that
4.6.7 (wily) is working well for me and the screen blanking issue is
finally gone! Bliss.

Happy to do more testing if it helps anyone.
