My Debian machines have Xfce. I configure Applications Menu ->
Settings-> Power Manager -> Display -> Display power management -> Off.

This is not a dpms issue. This is the OS thinking that it is not
attached to a monitor/KB. I can remote login and remove dpms any time.
Besides this happens in a VT also where there is no xfce. I just do not
know how to tell Linux/OS that a monitor and kb is attached and it
should look for enabling the respective drivers. I thought xrandr is the
way to go, but that is only when Xorg is running and not when we are at
a VT login prompt.
