User Input
Product: Impress Remote
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: General

Description:
Introduction
When two computers are communicating over RDP, with computer 1 controlling
computer 2, computer 2 connected to an external monitor, using the most recent
version of LibreOffice and presenter console enabled, computer 1 will go to a
blank screen (screensaver) after ~1min:30sec which will revert after pressing
Esc on either computer 1 or 2. Tested with Pop!_OS.
Troubleshooting
The presenter console should listen for mouse activity during presentation from
the remote computer, however, this is not occurring. The presentation does not
go to screensaver if the Next and Previous buttons for the presentation console
are used within the time period.
Solution
There are multiple possible fixes, first, LibreOffice should listen for
activity over RDP. Second, a setting to control screensaver over RDP needs to
be added. Third, a setting to change the screensaver over RDP timeout period.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Connect two computers using RDP, known reproducible using Pop!_OS with
Remmina.
2. Connect the controlled computer to an external monitor.
2.Open an Impress presentation with presenter console enabled.
3.Start the presentation and control it only with keyboard or mouse clicks, not
using the presenter console buttons.
4.After ~1 minute and 30 seconds the screen will go black on the controlling
computer.
Actual Results:
The presenter console view for the controlling computer (1) will go to a black
screen after 1 minute and 30 seconds of inactivity from computer 1. Computer 2
does not change in view, only computer 1.
Expected Results:
The controlling computer, computer 1, should not go to a blank screen with
inactivity.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
