Hmmm, and then even weirder.  After my screen was locked with
XScreensaver.  Monitor using usb->hdmi has frozen with a part of what was
the screensaver at the time.  Nothing new in Xorg.0.log.  In dmesg I get
this.  Then monitor is frozen with that until I turn it off with xrandr and
then back on again.
