kscreen backend launcher spewing log entries

[evinrude]

After I turn off kscreen2 (since monitor will not remain sleeping when its on) the monitor will go to sleep but kscreen_backend_launcher begins spewing log entries about every 8 seconds or so

My solution ? Overwrite

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kf5/kscreen_backend_launcher

with /usr/bin/true

What a ridiculous solution

This system has only 1 monitor
Kubuntu 22.04

[evinrude]

now on 24.04 , same ridiculous solution

You probably don't need kscreen unless this is a laptop you often connect to external monitors.

Then I found and installed "kdebugsettings" which seems to solve my problem .
