  Could you send me a
  grep -i dpms /etc/X11/XF86Config /var/log/XFree86.0.log
  ?

OK, I'm an idiot.  I did not have Option DPMS in the monior section
of my XF86Config file.  Sorry for wasting your time.

But in my own defense... should xset even let me enable DPMS if
its turned off at a lower level?  If xset had complained and not
allowed me to enable DPMS, I would have taken a harder look at
my XF86Config file..  Talk about a POLA.

   Hello,
   
   I have two hosts connected to one monitor. My idea is attach the
   display to the other host by issuing `xset dpms force suspend'.
   This works on one host with a Matrox Millenium.
   On the host with an Ati Rage 128 Pro TF it works with Netbsd, but
   it doesn't work with FreeBSD 4.7-Release.
   The screen only turns blank but the LED remains green. This is the
   same when issuing `xset s activate'.
   
   What could be the reason on FreeBSD 4.7 that dpms force suspend
   doesn't work?
   
   Installed are XFree86-Server-4.2.1_3 and XFree86-libraries-4.2.1_1.)
  
  You need XFree86-Server-4.2.1_4 or later (it's at _5 now).

I've now upgraded to XFree86-Server-4.2.1_5.  dpms still does not
work for me:

% xset dpms force off ; xset q | tail -5
  Standby: 300Suspend: 600Off: 660
  DPMS is Enabled
  Monitor is Off
Font cache:
  hi-mark (KB): 1024  low-mark (KB): 768  balance (%): 70

(and I'm looking at the monitor and it is on)

My video card is an ATI Rage 128:

none1@pci1:0:0: class=0x03 card=0x7106174b chip=0x54461002
rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor   = 'ATI Technologies'
device   = 'Rage 128 Pro AGP 4x'
class= display
subclass = VGA


Do I need something special in my /etc/X11/XF86Config to make this
work?  I never had problems on my old system (an alpha with a
3dlabs Permedia-2 based AGP card).

I didn't care about off. My monitor seems to behave the similar when
set to `off' as when set to suspend or standby. The status LED turns
yellow and the screen turns blank and recovery takes a few seconds.

My application is to switch the display to the alternate host. This
is working now.

As does mine (based on experiance from when I had a video card that
worked in my old machine :-( )

Lucky you!  What does pciconf -lv say about your card?

 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..)

I'm usually running RELEASE. I cvsuped ports-x11 and portupgraded
XFree86-Servers. Now suspend works. I haven't encountered other
problems so far.
