In stable (and current), I am having some problems with the console driver
(mainly in switching from X to a tty).  When shutting down/rebooting and
occasionally when switching to a virtual terminal, my monitor goes into
DPMS sleep mode.

I can still use the keyboard and do just about anything, I just can't see
anything.  Once this happens, It doesn't seem to recover until I reboot.

I am using Accelerated X, but have seen the problem under 2.1.0 and XFree
3.1.2.

Has anyone else seen this?
