doesn't work for me because I turn off the screen saver during my program execution:

# prevent screensaver activation
lipc-set-prop com.lab126.powerd preventScreenSaver 1
...
# restore screensaver
lipc-set-prop com.lab126.powerd preventScreenSaver 0

I touch the screensaver timeout event now instead on a 500? seconds loop. leaves these events available. does the same job as far as the end user is concerned.


also. baf has provided a c based interface to lipc now.

if you fancy refactoring that bit out.
