        OK, can I get a direct answer from anybody? Will the xset dpms
        command for Energy Star power saving work or not on a Lombard
        PowerBook?

        I switched over to Xpmac, tried the xset command...waited to see
        if it would switch the display off...nothing.

        BTW, switching to Xpmac did enable "xset s blank on" to work,
        but, as far as it looks, it doesn't look like it switches the
        screen off...just blanks it. Is this true?

        - Paul
