Hi,

I have an opensuse 15.2 KDE desktop which runs 24/7 but the screen turns on every time my cat jumps on the table :)(:

That's why I would like to turn on the screen only on keyboard interaction but not on mouse move. I couldn't find any help until now to do so.

Is there a way to disable screen unlock on mouse move?

Thanks
Marc

How about turning your mouse upside down? Or turning your mouse off if it is a wireless one? I usually turn the mouse off when I don't use it...


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

Hi Mamarok,

Thanks for your reply

It's connected via cable so turning it off is not an option.

Yes turning it up-side-down is what I'm doing currently but it's not a real solution more an ugly workaround ;)

You can always lock the screen, that should also prevent a wake-up
