After a few hours I'm ready to go back to 3.3.6. But maybe not if I can 
find DPMS on the new X. Digging thru source code suggests the function 
is really supposed to be there in the mga driver. Think I have the mga 
driver running.

snipped from /etc/X11/XF86Config:
Section "Device"
   Identifier      "Primary Card"
   VendorName      "Unknown"
   BoardName       "Matrox Millennium II 4MB"
   Driver          "mga"
   VideoRam 4096

% grep DPMS /var/log/XFree86.0.log
(II) MGA(0): DPMS capabilities: StandBy Suspend Off; RGB/Color Display


Why does the log say I have it and xset says I don't?
