Power Management

[gummipunkt]

Hi,

I've installed KDE neon yesterday and it works awesome. But one thing makes me crazy:

Under Power Management I used the settings:
On Battery
- Dim screen: After 20 min
- Screen Energy Saving: Switch off after 30 min
- Suspend Session: Auto Sleep 60 min

But what happens now is, when I watch a YouTube video, the log in screen appears after 5 minutes. What I expect is the following: when I watch a video, my laptop doesn't go in sleep mode or shows the log in screen until the battery is empty. Or when I don't watch a video or something like this, the screen goes off after 20 min. I think that's the way all other OSes are doing it.

Any recommendations what the problem could be? I'm using a Lenovo Yogabook with AMD Ryzen.

Thanks in advance,
gummipunkt

Hello gummipunkt, Welcome to the Kubuntu forums. I'm not sure I can be of much help But I've found that the power setting on KDE don't always work well. I use a program called slimbookbattery which does a fair job of saving battery power. You have to install it from their PPA found here. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2021/10/...ery-4-released
