Howdy,

I'm pretty sure this problem just cropped up for me, but I can't be
certain.  I just switched from a CRT with analog connection to a TFT
with a DVI connection.  My Radeon All-in-Wonder supports both, so I kept
the same card.  After starting to use the DVI connection, DPMS no longer
works.  'xset dpms force off' produces this error message:

jwb@noodles ~ % xset dpms force off
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  138 (DPMS)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  6 (DPMSForceLevel)
  Serial number of failed request:  11
  Current serial number in output stream:  13

I also get these messages in the log file:

(II) Loading extension DPMS
(II) RADEON(0): DPMS capabilities: Off; RGB/Color Display
(WW) RADEON(0): Option "DPMS" is not used

I enabled DPMS in the config file with this section:

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Generic Monitor"
        HorizSync       30-81
        VertRefresh     50-85
        Option          "DPMS"
        DisplaySize     432 324
EndSection

When I was using the CRT, DPMS worked fine.  Why the difference?
