I think changing the inactivity timer is a better fit for > my usage, but maybe I'll try it in the nightly. I've tried it for a couple of days and it's not really what I want. It's annoying to sit down at my computer after running an errand and have a break come up 2 minutes later. I'm going to try changing the monitor/idle setting. Do you know what things will break if I set it to more than 30 secs? Anything I might be able to fix?
