Looks fine to me. man xset. But I thought this was done in the
XF86Config nowadays?

xset doesn't let xlock turn dpms on only after the screen has been 'still'
for the time.. ARGGG..
    $ xlock -dpmsoff 15 -mode strange
The screen saver was still going 35 min latter, it should have turned the
screen of 15s after the screensaver started :(

1. Xfree 4.0.2 dpms not working

Trying to get dpms to shut my monitor off after a certain time
period. xset -q shows the options are set properly for suspend,
sleep, off
etc but nothing happens. Options entered in Xsetup_0 or thru KDE
Power Control/Energy show everything is enabled, but nothing ever
happens. Worked fine with 3.3.6. Compiled 4.0.2 from scratch. Running
2.4.2ac-11 Kernel. Using an Intel CA810 mb. Any switches on compile
that might need setting?

2. Will Linux firewall server interfere with online gaming?
