Debian and other OSes already have a program called 'xprintidle',
which does the same thing as x11idle. It also handles the DPMS bug[1]
some version of X servers have.
In order to use an alternative, introduce a customizable variable
'org-clock-x11idle-program-name' to hold the actual command name.

thanks for the patch, especially for taking care of updating the
documentation.
Since the patch is substantial, we need you sign the FSF copyright
assignment in order to apply it. If that's okay with you, please
fill the form here and follow the instructions here:

Thanks!

Thank you for the info.
I've signed the paper and it's on its way to FSF. it will take a few
more days to reach the office, though.
Thanks,

great -- thanks!
I've added you to the list of contributors waiting for the FSF
confirmation. If you don't get any feedback within the next three
weeks, let me know, I can try to accelerate things.
Best,

thanks a lot for the time you spent on this -- and don't hold
your breath, it may take some time for the FSF to process this.
Let me know when you get the confirmation.
All best,
