Doing xset dpms off on shutdown



Hi folks,

I finally got my APM working properly, I created a custom kernel based 
on Debian's config and kernel-source rather than downloading Linus' 
tree. 

A minor thing, though, I want to do 
xset dpms off
when I shut down the system. When the machine is down, the screen will 
go into standby, but I might as well tell it to go off (not that it 
seems to make a difference, but what do I know... :-) ).

How would I do that? 

(I looked at the /etc/rc6.d/-files, but I don't know what to make of it, 
especially since the last of them is reboot, and it shouldn't shut down 
on reboot)

Perhaps this is an idea for a default setup of xbase-clients? Should I 
file a wishlist bug for it? 
 
Best,

Kjetil
