Re: [aclug-L] power saver using XF86Config

[John Goerzen <jgoerzen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mike,

These settings are often card-specific.   You can find information by
looking at the appropriate README file in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc or
the appropriate section on www.xfree86.org.  If you need more specific 
information, let us know what video card you have, and we can probably 
give you sample lines to insert into your XF86Config file.
