Package: vbetool
Version: 1.1-4
Severity: normal

Hi

Using `dpms off` to switch off the display does not work anymore:

    % sudo vbetool dpms off
    zsh: illegal hardware instruction  sudo vbetool dpms off

I can confirm this on both a 32bit and 64bit system.
Graphics card is reported by lspci as
