I recently upgraded my Fedora 8 box to latest atrpms
and mythtv. I also installed nvidia drivers (not open
source).
However, the my screen gets blanked after half hour.
Not sure what is causing it, since I have removed the
dpms line from xorg.conf. 
The 'xset -dpms' command no longer works. It gives
error about extension dpms not being installed.

Here is my xorg.conf.. anything I am missing ??
