Bug ID: 366529 Summary: Screen locks when using USB accessories like gamepads Product: kscreenlocker Version: 5.5.95 Platform: Gentoo Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: ganth...@gmail.com CC: bhus...@gmail.com, mgraess...@kde.org Kscreenlocker doesn't seem to be aware of input from USB gamepads, so it will lock if only those devices are being used. I noticed this happening after I upgraded from KDE 4 and was playing a full screen game through Steam while using one of my USB gamepads. The default settings was set to 5 minutes, so the screen lock would interrupt my game after every 5 minutes. The obvious workaround was to turn the screen lock feature off, but I don't think that will be the best solution in the future. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to KDE plasma 2. Ensure that the screen lock feature is on 3. Launch a full screen game, but only play with a USB gamepad 4. Avoid hitting the keyboard or using a mouse Actual Results: Kscreenlock will interrupt the game when it wasn't necessary since USB input was being passed into the OS via a gamepad. Expected Results: Kscreenlock should account for USB accessory input and not automatically lock. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
