[mythtv-users] gnome-screensaver-command --poke workaround

Hi,

the --poke function has been removed from the
gnome-screensaver-command. Funny, this options is still in the help
output of the program. But anyway, I wrote a program that catches the
--poke calls and runs the gnome-screensaver-command with -i to stop
the screensaver to come up.

See http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/8639#comment:8 for more details
about this "feature".

The program can be found at http://linux.thaj.net63.net/gsc-fake/

Hope it is useful for someone,
... thaler.
