"xset dpms force standby" doesn't work with savage driver (T21)

[David Förster <david@dfoerster.de>]

Hi,

I have the problem that "xset dpms force (standby|suspend|off)" does 
absolutely nothing on my IBM Thinkpad T21 with the Xfree 4.3 (testing) and 
the savage driver. I also tried an alternative driver from 
http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html (latest version not the deb package).
The DPMS option is enabled and xset -q shows the set timeouts but they're just 
ignored.

Is this a problem with the driver?

Any help is appreciated.

David
