Hi all,
There was a bug in kscreenlocker that was fixed in plasma 5.27. I believe I am still seeing the bug, but I'm not sure if it's something else on my system. Briefly, the bug is that when a process inhibits sleep it also prevents the monitor from shutting off on inactivity, but these states should be independent.
First, let me level set, I'm running kscreenlocker-5.27.4, I believe the bug should be fixed in this version. On a Debian 12 system I do not see this bug with kscreenlocker 5.27.2-1
It would be great if someone could verify they are seeing the same behavior on an up-to-date Gentoo box. To reproduce, set your screen switch off time to 1 min in System Settings->Energy Saving and run
| Code: | | sudo systemd-inhibit --what="sleep" --who="test" --why="test" --mode="block" sleep 1000 |
If your screen doesn't shut off in approx 1 min, that would be a positive confirmation of the bug.
To be clear, my screen shuts off just fine without the sleep inhibit in place. |

| This was a false alarm apologies. I may have discovered another bug, but I'll take care of that with KDE bugtracking. I'm embarrassed to admit the command above passes on gentoo too. I was using a script which ran that command, but it was inhibiting sleep multiple times per minute, each time the lock is taken to inhibit sleep sleep the timeout for screen switch-off is reset as well. I will check with the KDE developers to see if this is intended behavior. |
