Hmm, this is sad, you just ignore CRT monitors. Using DPMS is not option for
CRT, because after power off/on it takes some time before colors stabilize.

That is what DPMS was doing. Now the only way to have a progressive turn off is
running yet another process.

turning off saves more power.

The patch still works for xf86-video-ati-6.8.0.

Created an attachment (id=14313)
 --> (http://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=14313)
revert monitor blanking to pre 6.7 behaviour

With this patch applied, "xset s activate s blank" will blank the video output
but will not turn monitor off. So it should work like in version 6.6.3 and
before.

Only tested with one CRT monitor, so I don't know if it will work with
different configurations.

I was going to report the same thing, as old behaviour was pretty nice:
"xset s 300 300": make the screen go black in 5 minutes
"xset dpms 600 600 600": and then make it turn off in another 5 (10 from start)

Now "s" will let you choose between off with "xset s blank" or the
moire inducing cross pattern with X logo with "xset s noblank", but
no way to make it black but still give time to avoid a start/stop cycle.

Old behaviour, even if what the man page says contradicts it, was
the most complete (if I want animations eating CPU, even if slow, I
will install xlock, xscreensaver or something like that, which I just
had to do to get a black screensaver). New behaviour forces CRT tubes
and LCD backlights a bit too much without option to have the two phase
power off. And in the case of CRTs, it is even worse, as I doubt a high
frequency pattern is nice for the driving circuits (at least I saw it
moves slightly, so no burn in if using fast cycle time as "xset s 300 30").

A less extreme pattern would be better (or even just show the X logo in
faded colours, without any bg pattern), if there is no way to go back to
"s makes screen black". Yes, I tried "xset dpms 100 900 900" to test if
first level would be OK, but it seems this monitor does the same for
all modes.
