========================================================================

  Regardless of the above, the monitor does not blank after 10 minutes
(i.e. 600 seconds).  If I run "xset dpms force off" from xterm (both as
local user and as root), the display goes dark... for approximately 1
second... and then returns to normal.  Don't know if this is relavant,
but yesterday I was fighting a grocery delivery website for the better
part of an hour trying to place a simple order.  In the course of that,
X crashed to a text tty commandline a few times.

  Calling support confirmed a nationwide problem at their end.  The help
desk guy was surprised that I managed to get my order through at all; it
was that bad at their end.  Anyhow, my order was delivered OK this
morning.  The DPMS issue started yesterday, so I wonder if it's related
to the X crashes.
