I've been away for a while; sorry for all this taking so long.  I've 
meanwhile been able to reproduce the problem. It happens when GNOME 
concurrently tries to set the video mode and read the available video 
modes from EDID. Reading EDID is not protected against concurrent mode 
setting or cursor movement.

I've posted a patchset that should fix the problem. See [1].

Best regards
Thomas
