Hello!

I have a SPARCClassic on which I run NetBSD 1.5.1 and use as an
X-terminal. It works very well, but I have one problem. The display
never enters power saving mode. xset q tells me that the server
doesn't have the DPMS extension.

Is it possible to have Xsun use the DPMS extension for this kind of
hardware (it uses a SUN/Sony GDM17e10 monitor which has a power saving
mode)? Is a rebuild of X nessessary to get dpms? I'm new to NetBSD,
but it looks very promising indeed.
