Bug#420292: xserver-xorg-video-intel: gnome-screensaver blanks screen and does not display dialog after upgrade to 2.0.0-1

[David Härdeman <david@hardeman.nu>]

I have exactly the same problem (that the driver thinks something is 
connected to VGA output on my laptop and gnome-screensaver decides to 
show its dialogue on the VGA screen).

As a workaround I added this line to xsession:
xrandr --output VGA --off --output LVDS --auto

And after that gnome-screensaver works again. Might be something to try 
until the driver is fixed.
