I have one of those energy star monitors. I'm running Window Maker 0.65
Seems when I step away from the computer and the energy star turns off
the monitor, I lose the dial-up ppp connection and activity such as
printing stops.



That's not your monitor. You may have different energy star complaint components, such as the computer itself, the monitor, etc. Think about it, the monitor wouldn't halt processes on your PC. Of course, besides hardware based energy star complaince there is also software based power management.
