In a 'cron' job, is there a way to tell whether the Gnome screensaver is currently active? Trying to use "gnome-screensaver-command -q" just results in: ** Message: Failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon: /bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed. Alternative ways of testing whether the console user is actively using the system would also be appreciated. This is my own cron job trying to test whether I am currently active, so the IDs match, but the job is obviously not part of the current Gnome session. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address.
