[ltp] DPMS does not work on my ThinkPad T23

[Martin Steigerwald]

Hello,

I came across this before, but now I tested it a bit more as I recognized 
the ibm-blank.sh script of the ibm-acpi debian package again...

I tried using the command used in that script as the user who is currently 
running X:

/usr/X11R6/bin/xset -display:0 dpms force off

But nothing happens when I execute this.

I have DPMS enabled in my XF86Config.

Here are some possibly relevant portions of it. Did I put the DPMS option 
in the wrong section?

Section "Monitor"
  Identifier   "Monitor-Notebook"
  Option       "CalcAlgorithm" "CheckDesktopGeometry"

  HorizSync    31-80
  ModelName    "TFT-Display"
  Option       "DPMS"
  VendorName   "--> LCD"
  VertRefresh  40-60
#  UseModes     "Modes-Notebook"
EndSection

Section "Device"
  Identifier   "Device-SuperSavage"
  BoardName    "SuperSavage/IXC 64 SDR"
  #BusID        "1:0:0"
  Driver       "savage"
  Screen       0
  VendorName   "S3"
  Option        "hwcursor"
  Option        "Accel"
EndSection

(hwcursor doesn't seem to work)

Section "Screen"
  Identifier   "Screen-Notebook"
  DefaultDepth 24
  Device       "Device-SuperSavage"
  Monitor      "Monitor-Notebook"
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           1
                Modes           "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           4
                Modes           "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           8
                Modes           "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           15
                Modes           "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           16
                Modes           "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           24
                Modes           "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

(1280x1024 is for external LCD display)
