In your XFconfig-4 file have something like this

        #DisplaySize      370   280     # mm
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "ADI"
        ModelName    "ADI GD910T"
        HorizSync       30-110
        VertRefresh     50-160
        Option      "DPMS" <===== add this if you don't have it.
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        DefaultDepth 24
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     1
                Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "800x600"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     4
                Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "800x600"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     8

        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     15
                Modes "1600x1280" "1280x1024" "800x600"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     16
                Modes "1600x1280" "1280x1024" "800x600"
