Created attachment 393264 [details] joystickwake-9999.ebuild Hi, I think this ebuild should go to games-util. > Linux gamers often find themselves unexpectedly staring at a blank screen, > because their display server fails to recognize game controllers as input > devices and allows the screen blanker to activate during gameplay. This > program attempts to work around the problem by periodically delaying screen > blankers when it detects joystick activity. > > Once installed, joystickwake launches automatically when a user logs in to > any modern linux desktop environment. It can also be run manually, either > from a command prompt or from a user-created menu entry. It then monitors > udev to find joystick devices (including those that are plugged in later) > and reacts to activity from any of them. Tested under Xfce-4.10 on a stable system. Works perfectly. On a stable system, you need to : - set PYTHON_TARGETS with python3_4 in make.conf - unmask python3_4 USE on dev-python/pyudev python-3.4 is required for asyncio module.

Thanks for this ebuild Fab, I installed the 0.2 version and it works perfectly (Xfce 4.12 with xscreensaver).
