Jeff,
I'm sure it must be something simple too. Let me clear up one point of
confusion: the whole computer goes into power conservation, this is not just
a problem of the video card. When it goes to the next step of power saving
shutdown there is no getting Linux back up without cutting
ive had to pull the plug on linux a couple times, usually from trying the
gnome gui or sawmill, but i dont think it really hurt my system at all

This looked so good, but it didn't work; power saving is still active.

First thing I do to stop this is remove kdpms. Log in or su to root. Start
up kpackage. Click on the little magnifying glass and type kdpms and hit find.

Can anyone write instructions to get DPMS (power management) to work
reliably and to stick across IPL. If you go to KDE and set it up it only
lasts for that session. The next boot it is gone. There has to be a way for
something like this but I have tried setting I have seen in posts and
nothing

I was just curious if there is a way to turn off dpms for good. I have to

with windows too), and I have to use the power

Hi Ot,
You can always install the DPMSi...rpm as root, if it is missing.
When i start Xwin i get the error X11 Server lack
DPMS Support. I know it had something to do with the monitor. But i dont know
how to either turn it on in the server or just make it so the annoying message
doesnt pop up every time .
Thanx
I want to use KDE's DPMS stuff, but it doesn't work, although my
monitor does support DPMS. May it be that my BIOS is not configurated
right? Here are the BIOS entries:
IPCA Functino: Disabled
Power Management: User Define
PM Control by APM: yes
Vidoe Off Option: Supend - Off
Video Off
i think the dpms is not compatible with my ATI Rage Fury video card. it
used to shut off my monitor when i used the old ATI Rage Pro video card.
But after changing video cards this power management which i really
liked will not work anymore.
does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get the
