Public bug reported:

Something like

setterm -powersave=powerdown -powerdown=15 -store

ought to do it, probably right whenever/wherever a VT is activated.

tho when i try that command i get

setterm: cannot (un)set powersave mode: Inappropriate ioctl for device

is that the problem, something lacking in a device driver or whatever?

or does the HP EliteDesk Pro 800 G1 SFF actually lack dpms energy star
features?  seems dubious that it would.

or is it just a case of finger pointing?  ubuntu saying systemd should
do it, systemd saying getty should do it?

whatever, i shouldn't walk up to a server terminal that's had nobody
there for hours and hours and see it's display still burning away,
right?
