Description Neal Gompa 2023-02-25 14:44:23 UTC

Description of problem:
Because kf5-kidletime wasn't built with wayland features enabled, Plasma stopped being able to automatically trigger power management features automatically, including dimming the display and triggering system sleep

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.103.0-1.fc38

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up Fedora KDE on a laptop
2. Unplug laptop
3. Wait

Actual results:
Display doesn't dim, and system doesn't sleep

Expected results:
Display should dim after 5 minutes and sleep after 10 minutes

Comment 1 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2023-02-25 14:47:00 UTC

Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 38-beta by Fedora user ngompa using the blocker tracking app because:

 We don't seem to have criteria around this, but it would be very bad if power management features didn't work on a release-blocking desktop.

Thank you Neal for the CC on this bug.  This certainly fixes the issue in Fedora 37, when I'm logged in.  However, as described in Bug #2168955, the SDDM Wayland Greeter keeps the screen on all the time when no user is logged in.  Are there separate power management settings for the greeter?

not that I'm aware of. Can you report this upstream to SDDM?

It is already reported upstream. Those links are included in Bug #2168955 to raise the issue here, since it will be the default in Fedora 38.

Comment 8 Geraldo Simião 2023-02-27 13:47:00 UTC

Just to say that this fixed the problem on F37 too, now the monitors turn off automaticaly as expected after some time idle.
