This is not a dpms issue. This is the OS thinking that it is not 
attached to a monitor/KB.  I can remote login and remove dpms any time. 
Besides this happens in a VT also where there is no xfce. I just do not 
know how to tell Linux/OS that a monitor and kb is attached and it 
should look for enabling the respective drivers. I thought xrandr is the 
way to go, but that is only when Xorg is running and not when we are at 
a VT login prompt.

Ramesh
