I tested it with a combination of xscreensaver and perl script and it
is working great. mythfrontend is being killed when it is inactive for
10 minutes and mythwelcome appears. if nothing happens for one more
minute, mythbox sets wakeup time and goes to standby (S3).

Now I do not have to worry if I forget to exit mythfrontend.
