I'm using woody, but the xfree86 in woody is the same package as sid. I'm hoping you have solved this perplexing problem since you posted, but just in case you haven't, I just wanted to know a couple of things, like: Do you use the: Option "DPMS" in XF86Config-4? I've never got this to work, so I've always used: xset dpms 0 0 2400 in my ~/.xsession file. This has worked until the recent upgrade. I'm just thankful the off button on my monitor still works :) John > -- > Karsten M. Self <kmself@ix.netcom.com> http://kmself.home.netcom.com/ > What part of "Gestalt" don't you understand?
