Help, my Dell 2005 FPW goes into Standby mode and doesn't return.

I have a Geforce6600GT with Dual DVI and my secondary monitor is a KDS Rad5 (Returns from pwoer saving mode fine)

I am running 2.6.16 and 1.0.8756 nvidia-glx / nvidia-kernel

WEIRD PROBLEM: It won't return from standby, however.. When I run X (kde), it stays in power off (standby) mode... and when I Logout of X back to hte console... it returns to normal operation!!!! So I have to keep logging into X and logging out of X to get it to return to normal operation...

WTF DO I DO TO FIX THIS FROM ETNERING OR GET IT RETURN FROM STANDBY?
