Well, I think I may have solved both of my own problems, though time |
| 12 |
will tell. For the desktop, it turns out that you need a Option "DPMS" |
| 13 |
"TRUE" line in the section for the video card if you are using the |
| 14 |
proprietary nvidia driver. For the laptop, it turns out that some of |
| 15 |
the laptop mode scripts that I had been using must have been upgraded, |
| 16 |
and these seemed to have chosen to manage DPMS themselves instead of |
| 17 |
having X do it. So I just changed those settings back. Man, I really |
| 18 |
need to pay better attention when I'm updating the config files! |
