The plot thickens.  I got home from work (after working all day with my 
samsung lcd running off the vga port on the docking station - which 
wasn't working before) to find problems with my cheap-as-chips chi-mei lcd.

The machine booted OK with the above kernel.  But at the login screen, 
the external monitor displayed an error saying "out of range" (instead 
of the "no device connected" message).  Attempting to log in to the box 
caused gdm/X to crash and I was sent back to the greeter screen.

I disconnected the monitor, logged in, reconnected the monitor, ran 
xrandr and the original system lock reared its ugly head once again.

Is there any log information that you need?  I'm running a Latitude
E6410.
