Hi all,

this is a new 2.6.20 module implementing a user inactivity trigger. Basically
it acts as an event sniffer, issuing an ACPI event when no user activity is
detected for more than a certain amount of time. This event can be successively
grabbed and managed by an user-level daemon such as acpid, blanking the screen,
dimming the lcd-panel light à la mac, etc...

For the interested guys I have included a bash configuration helper (called
gentable) that covers the details.

Best,
