For sessions with a x11-display set (ie. graphical sessions), it is up to each

session to delegate the responsibility for updating this value. Typically, the

screensaver will set this.

</para>

<para>

However, for non-graphical sessions with a display-device set the Session

object itself will periodically update this value based on the activity

detected on the display-device itself.

</para>

<para>

This should not be considered authoritative.
