Description Lastique 2019-08-03 16:23:05 UTC
SUMMARY

I'd like to be able to configure KDE Energy Saving (in System Settings, Power Management) so that when laptop lid is closed, the screen would lock and the laptop would go into suspend mode. The intention is that when the lid is opened, the laptop wakes up in the locked mode.

Currently, there are two separate options in the Energy Saving: either lock the screen (in which case the laptop remains active) or suspend (in which case it wakes up unlocked). My current workaround is to lock the screen manually before closing the lid, but it is too easy to forget.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 19.04 x86_64
KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0
Qt Version: 5.12.2

You can configure the screen to lock on suspend in lock screen settings.

Thanks, I found it. Still, looking for the option in the Desktop Behavior section is kind of non-obvious. Is it possible to make that option accessible from the Energy Saving as well?

Moving to wishlist.
Comment 4 Nate Graham 2021-08-19 20:30:10 UTC
That locks when waking up, not when sleeping. Maybe the difference is academic, but still. :)
