Hello everybody, I'm trying to get dpms to work with xset, so I can get my monitor to shut off when I close the lid. I know how to handle the acpi events, but I can't get xset to work... I'm using a sis 661FX card, with the sis driver... Here's my Xorg log from where dpms is enabled to the end...

And the output of the dpms area of xset -q:
Code:
DPMS (Energy Star):
Server does not have the DPMS Extension
What am I doing wrong? Whenever I try to xset dpms force off, or xset dpms force on, the xset program just displays it's syntax stuff... And when I try working with other dpms options through xset, I don't get anywhere...
Thanks everyone,
James
