I'm running into a bug with xf86-video-intel and SNA that is causing X
to crash whenever I close my laptop's lid.  I can prevent it if I
issue 'xset -dpms'.  The problem is that xlockmore turns DPMS back on
whenever it is executed.  Is there any way to prevent this or work
around it?  Also, I've tried 'Option "DPMS" "false"' in xorg.conf and
'xserver-command=X -dpms' in lightdm.conf, but X always starts with
DPMS on.  man xlock references "if DPMS support was compiled in" but
there is no USE flag for DPMS.  Should I file a bug for that?

'xset q' (crashes):

DPMS (Energy Star):
  Standby: 0    Suspend: 0    Off: 0
  DPMS is Enabled
  Monitor is On

'xset q' (doesn't crash):

DPMS (Energy Star):
  Standby: 0    Suspend: 0    Off: 0
  DPMS is Disabled
