Unfortunately it doesn't work as intended but only cause some side effect, at
least for my case. FYR my board is Sapphire HD5850 Toxic, and my monitor is
EIZO EV2336W.

All "turning it off" mean physically powering it off. I even tried unplugging
the power today.

> Are you physically powering off the TV or do you mean dpms?
In the case that I found out the problem, I was nuking a disk in console, so I
physically powered off the TV after I ran the command. When I turn on my TV
again after a long time, I can't get back the display.
