-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear Maintainer, Since I moved to testing, my monitor no longer automatically turns off. Was working with stable. I used `xset q` and it reports that while DPMS is "Enabled", all the timers are set to 0, which effectively disables them. I went into systemsettings, then "Power Management", then "Energy Saving", then the "On AC Power" tab. (I'm always on AC power, this is a desktop.) The "Screen Energy Saving" box was already selected. I deselected it, and clicked "Apply". `zset q` still reported "Enabled" DPMS with 0 timers. I selected "Secreen Energy Saving" again, and kept the existing "Switch off after" value (15 minutes). Then, I clicked "Apply". `xset q` still reported "Enabled" DPMS with 0 timers. I changed the "Switch off after" value, and applied. `xset q` still reported "Enabled" DPMS with 0 timers. I used `xset dpms 900 900 900` to enabled DPMS with 15 minute timers. `xset q` reported the settings had changed. (I did not, at this point, wait 15 minutes to confirm the setting; but I trust it for now.) I made some changes to the "Switch off after" setting, applied, reverted back to 15 minutes, and applied. `xset q` reported "Enabled" DPMS with 0 timers. I used `xset dpms 900 900 900` to correct he timers, and a second `xset q` to confirm them. I toggled off the "Screen Energy Saving" setting, applied, toggled it back on keeping the same "Switch off after" setting, and applied. `xset q` reported "Enabled" DPMS with 0 times. I used `xset dpms 900 900 900` to correct the times, and a second `xset q` to confirm them. I expect to be able to use system settings to enable DPMS with the timer lengths I want. If it can't apply the settings, I expect it to give some indication of failure, and possibly open the bug reporting tool. I expect that if the desired settings match the current settings that doing an "Apply" would not change the current settings to another, undesirable setting. (I.e. *NOT* the observed behavior where having it changes the timers to 0 from 900, even though 15 minutes (900 seconds) was the desired setting.) I'd prefer it displayed settings to match the current settings or for the "Apply" button to be immediately available if the saved, desired settings do not match the current settings. - -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (900, 'stable-updates'), (900, 'testing'), (900, 'stable'), (850, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (850, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (300, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages systemsettings depends on: ii kio 5.54.1-1 ii kpackagetool5 5.54.0-1 ii libc6 2.28-10 ii libkf5activities5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5activitiesstats1 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5auth5 5.54.0-2 ii libkf5completion5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5configcore5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5configgui5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5configwidgets5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5coreaddons5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5crash5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5dbusaddons5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5declarative5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5i18n5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5iconthemes5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5itemviews5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5kcmutils5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5khtml5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5kiowidgets5 5.54.1-1 ii libkf5package5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5quickaddons5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5service-bin 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5service5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5widgetsaddons5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5windowsystem5 5.54.0-1 ii libkf5xmlgui5 5.54.0-1 ii libkworkspace5-5 4:5.14.5.1-1 ii libqt5core5a 5.11.3+dfsg1-1 ii libqt5dbus5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1 ii libqt5gui5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1 ii libqt5qml5 5.11.3-4 ii libqt5quick5 5.11.3-4 ii libqt5quickwidgets5 5.11.3-4 ii libqt5widgets5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1 ii libstdc++6 8.3.0-6 ii qml-module-org-kde-kcm 5.54.0-1 ii qml-module-org-kde-kirigami2 5.54.0-1 ii qml-module-qtquick-controls 5.11.3-2 ii qml-module-qtquick-layouts 5.11.3-4 ii qml-module-qtquick2 5.11.3-4 systemsettings recommends no packages. systemsettings suggests no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHQEARECADQWIQTFhn3a8g2plxzZYyjnmmovsbVAWQUCXOpWUxYcYnNzQGlndWFu YXN1aWNpZGUubmV0AAoJEOeaai+xtUBZDVAAn1hFrAwdqshGghf3RPydiFPLT6lw AJwL8tUhcGKeoyfUJ5D51utL4s9vMQ== =smJV -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
