Description Vadym Krevs 2016-02-05 11:42:47 UTC
openSUSE 42.1 Leap with latest plasma/kde frameworks from obs. My pc has two monitors attached to it.

On the Energy Saving tab in System Settings->Power Management I've unchecked all options except for "Screen Energy Saving" which is set to switch off after 90 min.

Despite this the monitors never switch off,  even when I lock the screen.

KDM is unmaintained and not used in KDE Plasma 5.

SDDM is the login manager used in KDE Plasma 5. If you still have this same issue with SDDM, please file an issue on the SDDM bugtracker (after doing a search for existing issues first!): https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/
