Dear Maintainer,

I have configured xscreensaver to use "Blank Screen Only", enabled power
management and "Quick Power-off in Blank Only Mode".
The display IS powered off when I issue "File -> Blank Screen Now" in
xscreensaver-demo. However, it only goes black, when the scheduled blank time
is reached.

Hi Christian,

It would be best if you can try version 6.02. If the issue persists,
please attach a verbose log as per the FAQ:

If the problem is reproducible, please type the following into a shell:

xscreensaver-command -exit
xscreensaver -v -log log.txt

That will re-start XScreenSaver and append diagnostics to the
"log.txt" file. When the problem happens again, attach the complete
file.

Best regards,
Tormod
