Firstly, thanks to everyone who helped with my stupid question about Mitsumi drives.  You'll be pleased to know that it's all working now.

This problem relates to DPMS.  It works - half way.  The system is a P90, with an S3 card (X runs fine) and a KTX (rebadged Mag) monitor.  I know that the monitor can be told to go into sleep mode because it did under os/2.

Running setterm will get it go into standby mode under a plain console session.  However, when I set the monitor to sleep after 5 mins on standby, it awoke - d'oh!  Is there some way to make it go into sleep mode?  Better yet, is some setting in X that will achieve the same results?  

Reg.
