I'm also plagued by this problem. One hint that I found while googling was that one should specify that the graphics adapter is a PCI Express one (in case your graphics adapter is in fact a PCI-E one, of course) in the BIOS. Otherwise, the BIOS will check for a regular PCI graphics adapter first before it finally figures out that it is in fact in the PCI-E port. Well, I did that about 2-3 weeks ago, and the problem hasn't appeared again yet. I'm not yet convinced that this solves the problem, but it might be worthwhile if people with PCI Express (or maybe even AGP or other non-PCI graphics adapters) could check if the BIOS is set to assume the graphics adapter in the right place, eventually correct and report back if it did help.
I'm on Feisty, by the way.
