You might be able to log into your computer via
telnet or ssh. Then you will have the chance to
analyze what went wrong in that particular moment.

Theres a tool in svgalib that is called vga_reset
- run as root from a second console it might be
able to initialize your adapter to bring your screen
back. Maybe console switching still works for you.

For save operation, i would suggest that you disable 
DRI so that no kernel module and alikes do start.
(/etc/X11/XF86Config[-4] Section "Module" Load "dri")
