Suspend the monitor? If it can, I haven't figured it out. What X certainly cannot do, is power-off the machine after a shutdown -h.
The safest way - because it works for all of X, i.e. all users and in xkm/kdm/gdm - is to insert Option "power_saver" into the section "Device" of your XF86Config. You can change the default timeout values by adding into the "Screen" section (it's seconds) BlankTime 600 StandbyTime 900 SupendTime 1200 OffTime 1600 for example. You can also do it as a user, using 'xset' (man xset). Example: xset +dpms to enable it. You can also change the timeout values. I always use both methods, the XF86Config one to have DPMS enabled for everyone and everything on _my_ machine, and the xset-method in case I use another machine where this was not done in the X-configuration. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
