A new puzzle: normally in #XOrg I can blank the screen with "xset dpms force off" and with KDE/Plasma I could bind this to a hot key, but in Gnome #Ubuntu 25.10 using #XFCE4 it will work from inside a terminal, but as a hotkey it blanks, pauses, then refreshes the screens. Why would this be? Or perhaps, is there a prefered method to instantly blank all screens in XFCE-4? Not to lock, just to turn them off.
