Same is the case with me. I have an Acer aspire 3000 and a assembled Pentium 4 machine. Both show the same behaviour. Monitor flickers, display turns off, and never turns back on. X doesn't always start correctly. I need to do, CTRL_ALT_F2 and CTRL_ALT_F7 couple of times before I get it working again.
