I want to turn off the Graphic Card with command:

The problem is that screen turns on at _any_ keyboard/mouse event. So I often
accidentally touch the mouse and screen turns on. How can I disable waking up
on these events?
AFAIK you cannot. Well, unless your mouse can be disconnected that is.
But you could do "xset dpms 0 0 5", which would turn off the display
after 5 seconds of inactivity. So if you touch the mouse, the display
will come back on, but then it will turn off again in 5 seconds. You
can also set the screen brightness to minimum, to minimize the power
draw when it does turn on.
