Re: Detecting Idle

@Neil-B, Thanks for the information. From what I know about linux there are usually multiple ways to do any particular operation, do you know what "signal" the foldingathome.service is looking for?

Re: Detecting Idle

I wish the complete source code for foldingtathome.service was available, AFAICT it isn't. If it was, I'm sure the community could fix this issue quickly. I for one would like to help.

Detecting Idle
