Chris, gpm does use cpu as a criteria, and is documented as doing so:

gpm help:
When the timeout set in gnome-power-preferences is reached,
and the CPU load is idle, then the idle action is performed, which is usually to turn off the screen, or to suspend or hibernate.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

So if it is not in idle.c, it is in some other .c file....
