Is there anyway for periodic (cron like) job running as root on Fedora

Back in the day I could look at the access time of /dev/tty7, but this
appears to be no longer the case (even when moving to /dev/tty1 to
account for the vt1 X shift). Any ideas on how to determine this would
be greatly appreciated.
You want the IDLETIME XSync counter in the running X session. Gnome
already uses this to determine session idleness.

That assumes running inside the X session though right? This is a
system process started at boot.
