Title:
  DPMS does not work correctly on hybrid systems

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in xorg-server source package in Raring:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  [Impact]
   * When using nvidia drivers in the prime configuration listed in their README will not turn off correctly on DPMS.
   * External displays driven from the non-primary graphics card will not turn off either.

  [Test Case]
   * Get an affected system configuration, either with the binary drivers or open source drivers.
   * Run 'xset dpms force off'.
   * Backlight and external displays should turn off.

  [Regression Potential]
   * Unlikely, the patch is from upstream. Any regressions would only happen on hybrid systems, and the dpms on/off code is already tested in all drivers in non-hybrid configurations. The most likely regressions would involve backlight somehow.

  [Other Info]
   * Commit 6238bd68bd71323f8b4f1808f34dabe2ae447fe3 upstream.
   * Patch is included in the x1.14 release.
