Does Rocky9 include a screen idle detection tool similar to xprintidle? I wasn't able to locate it in the repository.

I tried using both yum and dnf, but it seems like I couldn’t find the xprintidle program. I wanted to ask if there is another way to install it or if you have any alternative program recommendations?

The output of loginctl has columns ‘state’, ‘idle’, and ‘since’ (but I haven’t quite figured out what they do tell).

3

Yes. I typing command loginctl but “idle” columns is “no” status and “since” is nothing value.

I can see other than “no”, but don’t know when.
