zzz from an xterm does what Fn-F1 does.  No change in behavior.  I did 
learn that it does "come back" when I hit the power button in the sense 
that it responds to network connections like ssh, but the screen never 
wakes up and I have to reboot it to fix it.

uname says i386 and this box has a Celeron processor if I recall correctly.

Jack.
