Screen dimming



Hello,

I'm trying to have the monitor go to sleep, as the Energy Saver does
after a long period of inactivity.

I've found info in the archives about how to launch the screen saver, or
how to prevent it from launching, but nothing about actually triggering
a monitor shutdown. 

The closest I've found in the PowerManager DDK
is kPMHasDimmingSupportMask, but it's only a capability flag, and I
haven't found any way to actually shut the screen down.  [since
IOPMSchedulePowerEvent only accepts wake, sleep, power on, shutdown]

Do I have to dig in the depths of the IOKit to do this or is there a
better way ?

Thanks in advance,
