According to the Linux people, this is due to a compatibility issue between XFree86 and DPMS (e.g. Advanced Power Management (APM) feature that shuts down power to the display screen). Upgrading to XFree86-3.3.1 (available now at ftp://ftp.Xfree86.org/), or disabling display blanking in your APM BIOS should solve the problem.
