Did a little search to see if I could find out what this is all about. Seems like a fairly common problem. Apparently, your monitor sucks.

Sounds like nothing to worry about though.
I no longer possess the monitor or the graphics card. /var/log/syslog does not complain for my current setup.
This issue is now closed as we have transitioned to using GitLab.
