Oh, okay. I overread "automatic" above. Sorry.

I enjoyed that automatic screen locking inhibition already. It finally works, 
so that during VLC playing a DVD the machine does not blank or lock the 
screen.

I see the issue there. I know why its done that way, but still, if you forget 
to lock your desktop it can be a security issue. But so or so its an upstream 
topic.

Thanks,
