Just installed the newest version of Plasma under Mint 19, and find the lock timeout value not changeable anywhere.
It seems that the screen continues to timeout, no matter where I attempt to change the value for a timeout.
there does not seem to be an obvious setting to control this, and don't know the proper value to manipulate using Konsole and an editor.

I would appreciate some direction for a KDE newbie.

Remember giving it a go many, many years ago, when a finished product was just a glimmer in someone's eye.

TIA!

Harry

Configure screen locking

KDE System Settings > Desktop Behavior > Screen Locking

Konsole - start single system settings module:

Code: Select all

kcmshell5 screenlocker

KDE System Settings - Search: lock

'Could not find module 'screenlocker'. See kcmshell5 --list for the full list of modules.'

Saw the previous posting and tried the command before.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Mint is using Debian package management ?
Is the package: 'kde-config-screenlocker' installed ?

Oh yes, naturally tried searching under workspace behaviour and under system settings and under any tree I could for settings for 'lock', that I could, and it revealed no available setting.

Forgot to add that!
