Last time I looked the S3 X server had an option called something like
"power_save". However on my #9 GXE64 all it caused the monitor to do was
blank the screen. The monitor never shut down. I have upgraded a couple of
revisions of the X server since then but I haven't gotten around to testing
it again. It could work now. BTW, the option goes in the device section.
