With the cable that came with the monitor? Just a wild idea...

I have attached xorg.conf, config-2.6.16.5 (vanilla linux), and a list
of installed packages in my mac mini. Please note that the
aforementioned config-2.6... builds a REALLY monolithic kernel, with all
the functionality I need built in, and no modules at all. You've been
warned :-).

Just tried it (linux-image-2.6.15-1-powerpc), and no problem at all!
$ xset dpms force standby
does the trick in X, and pressing power button (thanks to pbbuttonsd)
does it in plain console. Note: I have a happy hacking pro keyboard,
which has mac keys (vol up & down, power, mute, eject), although only
"power" works reliably for me; still working with the others... Won't
you by chance have the same keyboard? :)
