Is there anything in pygtk that would allow me to detect when the screensaver is activated? (I have found a way for win32 using pywin32)
Since I got no reply from xorg, does anyone here have any ideas? Here is the original email I sent to xorg mailing list: Hi, What is the official way of detecting when the screensaver is activated? I thought it might be the "_SCREENSAVER_STATUS" property of the root window so I tried running: while true; do xprop -root _SCREENSAVER_STATUS; done And then starting the screensaver with gnome-screensaver-command -l Nothing showed up. I must be missing something obvious. Is this documented anywhere? Cheers Antoine PS: apologies if this is not the correct list, I can't think of a better one. _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://faq.pygtk.org/
