Having problems convincing power management to actually work and turn off your monitors? me too... here's a simple fix if you want them off RIGHT NOW!

This is a problem that seems to effect people with MULTIPLE monitors and dont want to click power off on all 12 of them each time :P


COMMAND: xset dpms force off
