My first thought is that a new Intel video driver was recently
installed and that it's buggy with desktop hardware, which I assume to
be somewhat different (and older) and your laptop.
My second thought, not unlike the first, is that a new kernel
subsystem isn't working and playing well with the desktop hardware.
Can you reboot into an older kernel on the desktop?
