KDE Wayland Screen Energy Saving Problem
Last modified: 2024-03-14 22:13:54 UTC
When using Wayland, Screen Energy Saving doesn't work. Either waiting for the switch off timer, or using Ctrl + Alt + D the outcome is the same: 1. display turns off 2. display says that there is no signal/input 3. display turns off again 4. display wakes up immediately Journal gives the following: plasmashell[2276] qt.qpa.wayland: Wayland does not support QWindow::requestActivate() At bugs.kde.org there is the bug number 462695 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462695) where it claims the bug was resolved at KDE side and the fix has to be provided by openSUSE. My specs: openSUSE Tumbleweed Kernel 6.4.11-1-default DE Plasma 5.27.7 CPU Intel i5-4670K GPU AMD ATI Radeon RX 6750 XT Note: Everything works has expected using X11.
I have the exactly same issue here using Tumbleweed, hoping anyone can take a look of it. Should be quite straightforward to reproduce this issue.
Seems it works to some degrees after turning of the "auto input source selection" on my Dell monitor, still requires some more investigation.
Since I submitted this bug, I've moved on to EndeavourOS (Arch based), and I'm still having the same bug. That leaves me to believe that the bug is indeed related to KDE or Wayland and not SUSE. I'm waiting for the plasma 6 release, to see if something changes.
The problem seems to be resolved in KDE 6. Using it right now in OpenSUSE Tumbleed, and its working has intended.
