[mythtv-users] Howto avoid mouse movements restoring X from screensaver?

[Peter Valdemar Mørch]

Hi there,

My mouse is lying so that walking across the floor will generate tiny 
movements that cancel the screensaver, and so I'd like the "screensaver" 
to only wakeup by hitting the OFF button on the remote or possibly 
hitting a keyboard key - but not mouse movement.

I have the OFF button on my Hauppauge grey set to:
begin
         prog = irexec
         button = OFF
         config = xset -display :0 dpms force standby
         config = xset -display :0 dpms force on; xset -display :0 -dpms 
s off
end

So that when I hit the OFF button, I alternately turn the monitor on and 
off.

I've looked at `man xset` but that didn't give me any clues on how to 
make dpms disregard the mouse...

Any pointers, anybody?
