Re: DPMS doesn't work with KDE

[Wolfgang Mader <debian-lists@brain-frog.de>]

kde: 3.3.1 (from sid :-))

xset -q:
DPMS (Energy Star):
  Standby: 600    Suspend: 600    Off: 600
  DPMS is Enabled
  Monitor is On
Font cache:
  hi-mark (KB): 5120  low-mark (KB): 3840  balance (%): 70
File paths:
  Config file:  /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
  Modules path: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules
  Log file:     /var/log/XFree86.0.log

XF86Config-4:
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Generic Monitor"
        HorizSync       28-50
        VertRefresh     43-75
        Option          "DPMS"

This is the only section DPMS is mentioned. And
xset dpms force off
works "out of the box"

cheers Wolfgang
