comment Power saving enables touchpad
I think this might have to do with the USB autosuspend feauture of laptop-mode-tools. Have you tried disabling it? This is pretty much a wild guess but I would start investigating laptop-mode-tools.

funny thing is I started having the same problem a few days ago on my arch install. Maybe this is some regression or new bug?

comment detect if key is pressed from script
ok this works for the alt key and control key, the only problem is that I have my capslock be another control key so the keyup on the control leaves the capslock down. I have searched for a way to keyup capslock but this seems not to be possible with xte. any suggestions?

comment In KDE, how can I create a custom keyboard shortcut that prints the current date?
I was searching for the same thing so thanks. It seems that the sleep in my case is needed because of the shortcut itself, i.e. I use a shortcut that contains Control which implies that when the date is "typed in" by the script, Control is pressed down and so the actuall keystrokes that are sent to X are Control+<first letter of the date>, etc...

comment How can I control an existing remote shell?
can you run ssh? if so, and you still really want to use the existing shell, start screen using vnc in that shell, then from ssh you can screen -x as suggested by adam zalcman.
