So I turned off "Turn Off Screen" under energy settings. Tonight after I went
for a shower and other measures which took longer than 60 minutes, I came back
to find the lock screen blank, wiggling the cursor did nothing.  I went into
virtual terminal 1 and messed around, then tried to go back to the original
terminal (F7) but couldn't do it. 

Then I got this error message which I don't comprehend at all and don't know if
it has anything to do with the blank screen issue:

localhost login: [112762.275565] [T62483] amdgpu :08:00: [drm:
amdgpu_ring_test_helper [amdgpu]] *ERROR ring comp_1.0.1 test failed (-110)
[112762.64478211] [T5552] PM: can not get swap writer

So enough fooling around, I rebooted. I doublechecked my settings for Session
Suspend and Screen Locking. Session Suspend does nothing and the screen is not
supposed to be turned off at all. The Screen Lock setting is 60 minutes and
that worked - except it's impossible to get back from the blank screen once the
mouse is wiggled. The cursor is visible but nothing else.

I still haven't tried another theme. For now I'm simply going to turn off
Screen Locking because I don't have time for this nonsense.

Confirmed on openSUSE Tumbleweed desktop (not laptop) latest snapshot as of
this date. I'm on X11 after the Obsidian note-taking app does not work at all
with Wayland. (By the way, changing to Wayland without asking was a no-no.)

I had my system set to not do session suspend at all being on a desktop, but to
turn off the screen and lock the screen after 60 minutes. Then I turn off the
monitor at night before bed so I can sleep without waiting for the monitor to
turn off itself. In the morning I turn on the monitor, wiggle the mouse and get
my login screen. But the last couple days - but not EVERY day - the monitor
turns on, but the screen is dark and the mouse wiggle does not have any result.
Hitting escape turns the screen from gray to absolute black. I then have to
switch to a virtual terminal which appears with no problem and I then log in as
root and reboot.

I've decided to simply switch off screen turnoff to see if that fixes the
issue. I always turn off the monitor manually anyway before bed. so why bother
with screen turnoff? During the day I'm usually at the machine anyway so screen
turnoff is mostly a nuisance if I'm away for more than 60 minutes.

Haven't tried switching themes yet to test. Might try that tonight if the
Breeze Twilight theme is acceptable (no Dark theme is for me.)

It's interesting that I do NOT have the problem on my second desktop which also
does not use session suspend but only turns off the screen and locks the
screen. Sometimes I forget to turn off that system's monitor so perhaps I just
haven't seen the issue yet on that one.

[xdg-desktop-portal-kde] [Bug 475668] New: File Picker Show Preview Pane Option Is Greyed Out During File Saves on Firefox

2023-10-15 Thread Richard Steven Hack
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475668

Bug ID: 475668
   Summary: File Picker Show Preview Pane Option Is Greyed Out
During File Saves on Firefox
Classification: Plasma
   Product: xdg-desktop-portal-kde
   Version: 5.27.8
  Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: general
  Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: richardstevenh...@gmail.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org, jgrul...@redhat.com, n...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
***
When trying to save a file using the KDE file picker on Firefox, the Show
Preview Pane option is greyed out. It cannot be clicked on to activate it and
F11 does not work. This only occurs on Firefox - other KDE file dialogs are
unaffected.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Do a clean install of Firefox - do nothing to modify Firefox except use
about:config to set the XDG settings to 1 to enable the KDE file picker instead
of the GTK file picker.
2.  Run Firefox, browse to an image file on the Internet.
3.  Do a Save Page As which opens the KDE File Picker.

OBSERVED RESULT
The Show Preview Pane option is greyed out and neither a click nor F11 can
activate it.

EXPECTED RESULT
The Show Preview Pane should be available for activation by a mouse click or
F11.
