Bug ID: 458095
Summary: Feature Request: Option to disable sleep until next
manual sleep
Product: systemsettings
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_powerdevil
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: cysli...@posteo.de
CC: k...@privat.broulik.de
Target Milestone: ---
It would be great if there was an option:
"Temporarily disable automatic sleep until next manual sleep"
Extra points if this becomes a widget for the task bar
Rationale:
I use my private pc for work a lot now, as many others. And often I have tasks
running, especially SSH connections, that shouldn't be interrupted by "going to
sleep"
So I turn of "auto sleep after X minutes" and then forget to turn it back on
when this task is over.
When I notice that the PC is still running I often just press the sleep button
on by keyboard manually. Over and over, not wanting to spare the time to log in
and go to settings.
To make matters worse, something tends to wake up the PC at night and it does
not go to sleep afterwards, drawing power the whole night.
So such a feature would save me a lot of power and since it is in my bedroom,
also improve my nights a lot.
