Hello everyone,

I'm writing this mail for some issues I found in KRunner by developing (and 
using PowerDevil).

The first one, it's the one I care the most about: in the DBus interface 
org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver, the method getSessionIdleTime() simply doesn't 
work, and always returns 0. This issue forced me to do a ugly hack in 
PowerDevil, hence the dependency on libxss. Having this function work properly 
would really help in sorting out this dependency (and hack).

The second one, it's about suspension. I have provided, through PowerDevil 
DBus interface, a suspend() method, guess what it does? :) Anyway, when 
calling it through qdbusviewer everything works as a charm, but using it 
through KRunner results in keyboard and mouse becoming unusable, and the PC 
not suspending. This has to be related to KRunner since calling it from 
anywhere else works.

Last but not least, calling Lock() on the screensaver interface sometimes 
fails.

I think this is enough, I'd be happy to help providing patches or whatever, 
though I wanted to hear some opinions first.

Cheers,
Dario
