Uh, it works on some machines, not all. I wonder if it might be dependent on the graphics driver. It shouldn't be, IIRC we are talking vesafb by default. Even when using one of the extended resolutions for the console. I know the X side will depend on the graphics card and EDID monitor info, but as long as the card does vesa, then the console frame-buffer shouldn't care. I see it working on HP Proliants with ATI Rage XL, but not on Supermicro boards with XGI Z7/Z9.
Strange, I have 2 older SuperMicro boards (one dual-quad-core Opteron, one quad-quad-core Opetron). Both successfully blank and powerdown. They do have the radeon graphics, e.g. fb: switching to radeondrmfb from VESA VGA Supports vblank timestamp caching Rev 2 (21.10.2013). Driver supports precise vblank timestamp query. radeon: irq initialized. Loading R100 Microcode Check toward the end of dmesg and see what the non-blank/poweroff hardware is reporting. -- David C.
