Reset the idle timer in the block handler if screenSaverSuspended is set. This isn't quite a complete solution. We should also set the block timeout to something less than the idle timer timeout to ensure we will reset the idle timer before it times out if we are blocking. The idle timer timeout is presumably the first one to expire of the screen saver activation or monitor low power or power down timeout, depending on configuration. Unfortunately this is probably not straightforward to do. Whilst SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETSCREENSAVETIMEOUT) is portable, apparently SPI_GETLOWPOWERTIMEOUT and SPI_GETPOWEROFFTIMEOUT are not supported by Windows versions 6.0 or later, and the interface for discovering equivalent value is complex. This doesn't matter in the case where a media player or similar application is the one making the XScreenSaverSuspend() requests, as it will be continuously drawing, causing the X server to become unblocked often. In the case where slide show presentation application or similar is the one making the XScreenSaverSuspend() request, this might be a problem. Since "Powerpoint is Evil" [1], I think we'll leave it like this till someone complains :-) [1] http://www.edwardtufte.com/tufte/books_pp v2: conditionalize on SCREENSAVER Signed-off-by: Jon TURNEY <jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk> Reviewed-by: Colin Harrison <colin.harrison@virgin.net> |

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
