   DPMS was turned off by default.   
      
   I've now created /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/85-dpms.conf   
      
   Section "Monitor"   
       Identifier "Monitor0"   
       Option "DPMS" "true"   
   EndSection   
      
   This doesn't switch it on - or something other turns it off.   
      
   I can switch it on manually with xset +dpms.   
      
   Although, if I put that in the .xinitrc, it won't be enabled.   
   I assume a race condition or similar.
