Hi,
Well, I've recently upgrade to RH7.3 + xfs1.1, xfree86 4.2, and also
upgraded to a Radeon 7500 QW AGP from a Radeon VE QYAGP.
I've noticed that the performance is much better and that it also
claims, in the xfree86 log that dpms is on as opposed to rh7.1; xfree86
4.1which complained. I use xinerama and so now at least my 21" crt does
actually go into powersave mode and xfree86 does suspend processing of
the screensaver. However, the 1600sw in digital mode doesn't go into
power saving; it goes dark but the backlight is still on. I believe the
radeon driver classifies the 1600sw as a DFP, Primary Display == Type
3, as opposed to CRT or LCD. Does Radeon 7500 xf 4.2 actually do dpms
for DFP? The ddc info from the 1600sw + mla does indicate that it
supports suspend off:
