I have put an rpm which has a control panel option to set a delay for the frame 
activation and an option to toggle the top of the screen to activate the frame

You need to install sugar and sugar-toolkit (rpm -U [package] should work

The control panel can be accessed with the palette on the XO in the home screen.
