Hello
Is it possible to use the KDE energy management to start a script if x minutes nothing happened?
There is obviously a test if the mouse or keyboard gets no more impulses. After a certain time the screen is switched off.
However, I would like a script running after this time instead of switching the sceen off.

Thank for any help.

From what I can tell, it is not possible to do this at this time.
However, KDE Power Management should be extendable to do this if you altered the code.

It depends on how you define "nothing happend". If you only want to check user input (mouse and keyboard), there is little utility called "xprintidle" which will tell you how long X did not get any input. You may run it in cron or infinite loop and run your script in certain conditions are met.

Of course there might be user logged in through SSH or working on TTY. Few simultaneous X sessions are also possible. These are circumstances you must take into account.

OK, Thanks a lot, your responses helped me. So all is well and running smoothly.
