I also see a problem with F9's DPMS being unreliable under gnome and
the Radeon Xorg driver. I don't use one of the chew-up-your-cpu
screen savers (I just have a blank screen). Sometimes when I come
back after *hours* the screen is still on and displaying my desktop.
I've learned to just hit the manual screen saver button on the lower
right-hand side of my Samsung LCD.

I think the problems with DPMS are probably general to all drivers. I
did a fresh installed of fedora 9 on the box I am using now. This has an
old Matrox 400 card, and has seen many versions of Linux. For the first
time in years, the install did not pick up the screen type automatically.
