Re: Test for system idle

Hi, thanks for the response, let me clarify my question a bit: "system
idle" refers specifically the scenario where there's no user
interaction (i.e. no keyboard input/mouse events). It's like how screen
saver detects user has been idle for some time and it then kicks in to
load the screen saver.
