I have the same problem with x11vnc -- I don't have a solution but I do
have a work-around that works for me. Before starting up x11vnc, I run
DISPLAY=:0 xset -dpms
After my VNC session, I restore dpms
DISPLAY=:0 xset +dpms
Unfortunately, this wakes up the remote monitor, and disables sleep
mode, but it works. YMMV.
Cheers,
Raman
