The same happens on my system too. I changed video card and monitor
at the same time, but haven't had time to debug it yet.

Monitor: ViewMate LP995 19"
Video  : MSI MS-8808, TNT2-m64 w/ 32MB
Xserveer: NVIDIA modified 3.3.5 SVGA server for GLX.

It's annoying and very random.
Monitoe and system case on a sturdy table so the
cable isn't being moved other than vibration from fans
which is virtually non exesitant.
