    42 To enable this configuration you must set "DPMS" option in "Monitor" section::
       
    43 
       
    44   Section "Monitor"
       
    45   ...

    49 
       
    50 To view current DPMS settings::
       
    51 
       
    52   $ xset q
       
    53 
       
    54 To disable DPMS for current session use command::
       
    55 
       
    56   $ xset -dpms
       
    57

    64 
       
    65 To see currect settings type::
       
    66 
       
    67   $ xdpyinfo | grep   dimensions:
       
    68   dimensions:    1280x1024 pixels (382x302 millimeters)
       
    69 
       
    70 From this dimensions calculated your display dpi resolution::
       
    71 
       
    72   $ xdpyinfo | grep resolution:
       
    73   resolution:    85x86 dots per inch
       
    74 
       
    75 To set dimensions edit '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' (size in mm)::
       
    76 
       
    77   $ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
