Screen not locking/powering off

Sun Jun 20, 2021 4:02 am
Have recently installed Opensuse Leap 15.3, and having problems trying to get the screen to lock/power off.
If I don't log on, screen seems to power off ok, but after logging on, never seems to lock/power off automatically, even when no 'extra' programs are running (ie even just the standard system components.)
Can Manually lock (Meta+L), but still doesn't go to power off.

Yes, still having this issue - the only prob I have with KDE, and it is p**sing me off....
Does anyone else have this?
The only apps I run as standard, are : Thunderbird, Vivaldi, Skype, Signal, Strawberry. Have tried closing them individually, doesn't seem to make a difference...

Anyone?
Thanks.

I have this problem same as you exactly, and was not able to find a way to resolve it.

No, still have this problem, even after changing distro to Tumbleweed - exactly the same. Intermittently works, but most of the time, can walk away from my device for hours, come back, and still not locked/powered down.
Sh*ts me, totally!
