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: --- Created attachment 108145 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=108145&action=edit 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". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
