DCON sleep
The DCON can be put to sleep (ie - blanked). This is useful for those times when the system should stay up, but the DCON is drawing too much power. To put it to sleep:
echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/dcon/sleep
and to wake back up:
echo "0" > /sys/devices/platform/dcon/sleep
This is particularly useful when combined with the lid events (above).
