Remember that we have a DCON that acts as a hardware frame buffer. The
screen turning off if you don't use the machine for 30s is a terrible
user experience and absolutely not an option -- but the screen freezing
after the same timeout, and springing back to life if you press a button
or move the mouse, is more or less how we envisioned this would work all
along.
