NAME
     dpms -- VESA BIOS DPMS driver

SYNOPSIS
     device dpms

DESCRIPTION
     The  dpms	driver	uses  the VESA BIOS to manage an external display during
     suspend and resume.  When the machine suspends, the dpms driver  turns  the
     external display off.  When the machine resumes, it restores the display to
     its state when the driver was first loaded.

SEE ALSO
     acpi_video(4)

BUGS
     The  VESA	BIOS  DPMS calls do not provide any way to identify a particular
     display or adapter to manipulate.	As a result, this driver may have  unex-
     pected results on systems with multiple displays and/or adapters.

FreeBSD 15.1			 August 23, 2008			 DPMS(4)
