What appears to be happening is the conputer is trying to sync with the display... over and over. Eventually it MAY succeed, more often than not a power off / on of the display and a reboot of the system resolves the issue. There are no drivers from Samsung to support OS-X. Apparently the change from Snow Leopard to Lion caused the problem, and it persists with Mountain Lion.
