Thanks for your contribution to the Mac driver.  There are some issues with the patch:

That variable name has a misspelling.  It should probably be "assertionStates".

Why are the two assertion types handled differently here?  You get the value in the initializer in one case but not in the other.  You check if the CFNumber pointer is NULL in one case but not the other.  They should probably both be handled the same way.

Some better variable names would be nice, too.

If think it's better to use "if (longCount || longCount2)".  We're really interested in whether or not either is non-zero.  If, somehow, the sum overflows or one is a large negative value, we still want to consider that as the screen saver being disabled.

It's a minor style preference, but I prefer that single-statement bodies for "if"s not have braces.


> +                    if(success != kIOReturnSuccess)

Another style nitpick: please put a space between "if" and the condition.  That applies to the "if(count2)" above, too.

To Alexandre's chagrin, the Mac driver requires 10.6.  So, you might as well use the newer function.

We should use kIOPMAssertionTypePreventUserIdleDisplaySleep instead on OS versions where it's available.  We could either check a framework version variable (e.g. kCFCoreFoundationVersionNumber) or check if the dictionary returned from IOPMCopyAssertionsStatus() contains kIOPMAssertionTypePreventUserIdleDisplaySleep as a key.

This seems extraneous.
