Patch improves DPMS handling on VT swich and server termination/abort: previous version called the driver directly and too late. The result can be that the chip locks up. This patch also provides a check if xf86Info.kbdProc pointer is really set before calling it on abort as this pointer won't be set if the new modular keyboard driver is used. Without this the server may segfault. This patch is provided by Matthias Hopf. (Sorry, no extra ticket for this one liner). Both patches have been committed to HEAD already. This is for nomination for 6.8.2 only.
