Bug ID: 385331
Summary: Don't inhibit buttons when no reaction is configured
OR add option to deactivate inhibit
Product: Powerdevil
Version: 5.10.5
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: j...@frozen-doe.net
Target Milestone: ---

The checkbox
Currently, Powerdevil causes problems on unusual/advanced configurations
because of the inhibit:
$ systemd-inhibit
Who: PowerDevil (UID 1013/alena, PID 933/org_kde_powerde)
What:
handle-power-key:handle-suspend-key:handle-hibernate-key:handle-lid-switch
Why: KDE handles power events
Mode: block
For such setups it is usually better to disable Powerdevil and use
systemd-logind or similar service. But that has unwanted side effects (other
stuff gets broken) and requires additional workarounds.
Option A: When control of the power button and LID switch is disabled (see
screenshot), Powerdevil should release inhibit and let other services handle
the events. To enforce no action, the option can be enabled and "Do nothing"
can be selected. See attached screenshots.
Option B: Another, a more obvious option could be to add explicit checkbox to
release the inhibit. Something like "Use system setting to handle buttons and
lid switch".
