Hey.

I was hoping you could help me out.

I am getting the message you mention in your documentation (ie "Sorry,
your X Server lacks DPMS support").

If I try to set it manually with: xset dpms force suspend

I get:

X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request: 146 (DPMS)
  Minor opcode of failed request: 6 (DPMSForceLevel)
  Serial number of failed request: 11
  Current serial number in output stream: 13

I am using 2.2.6 kernal with KDE 1.1.2 and Xfree86 3.3.3.1-x

Any Suggestions?

Thanks.

Ev.
