I considered using this function but did not enjoy requiring X (many of my miner rigs don't even have it installed).

So then started looking at some other method but there are painfully few other ways to probe a timestamp of last-input, although it seems like something that could easily be in /proc/ or /sys/ somewhere tied to input at a system level without X. Found it amazing there is no kernel level functionality for this.

Noted there are wrappers making everything fail gracefully when there is no X

nice.

Can't we use dbus for this without using Xorg libs ?

dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.Mutter.IdleMonitor /org/gnome/Mutter/IdleMonitor/Core org.gnome.Mutter.IdleMonitor.GetIdletime

returns

method return time=1651487206.471009 sender=:1.16 -> destination=:1.286 serial=9324 reply_serial=2

Sure except Gnome requires X

EDIT: Also, requires Gnome (I run Cinnamon...)
