Probably just using 'xlockmore -mode blank' or such. But how to detect? It could be infrared based (heat signature), video based (webcam w/ motion detection) or even mechanical (switch in seat? meh..). And how would FreeBSD interface with such device? Most likely via USB, since my lt doesn't have any serial ports. Any ideas? Experience? -- Frederique
