I'm running 4.2.1_4 and dpms does not work for me. I just grabbed some diffs from the Xfree86 cvs to bring drivers/ati/r128_driver.c up to 1.57.2.1 and drivers/ati/r128_reg.h up to 1.14 and rebuilt the my r128_drv.o module. I'll see if it works the next time X crashes.. (I'm running current, so X crashes once/day or so..)
