In my XF86Config file I've added Option "power_saver" BlankTime 1 SuspendTime 20 OffTime 30 to the 'Section "Screen"' but it doesn't appear to ever blank and xlock -dpmsstandby option doesn't seem to do anything. Is there something I need to do with the vt console as well? [Card is Matrox G200-AGP, monitor is HP 1280 multisync but in the XF86Config file as "Unknown".] [Pls CC any reply as I am not yet subscribed to this list!] Greg.
