Public bug reported:

Running the nvidia driver on the e6510 (7383) and during testing,
there's a test for powersaving features that blanks the screen using
'xset dpms force off'.  On every other system so far this just causes
the screen to blank and quickly return using a keypress, mouse movement,
etc.

On this machine, however, this blanks the screen and then it never
recovers.  I can still cleanly shutdown by pressing the power button
(not holding it to force a power off, but a soft shutdown.  The system
actually goes through the shutdown sequence).
