Bug ID: 507829
Summary: Screen randomly remains dimmed after screen locked
barely prevented by shaking mouse
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.3.6
Reported In:
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: Screen locking
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. don't touch the mouse and keyboard for 5 minutes
2. Right when the screen dims and is going to be automatically locked,
IMMEDIATELY shake the mouse to prevent it
OBSERVED RESULT
Sometimes, randomly (I guess if the timing is exactly right), the screen
locking is prevented, but the screen remains dim, the full brightness is not
restored. Changing the screen brightness with the slider control does
absolutely nothing. Manually locking and then unlocking the screen does not
restore the original brightness. The workaround is to press Ctrl+Alt+F3 to go
to a virtual console and then Ctrl+Alt+F1 to come back to the graphical screen,
then the original brightness is restored. However, the screen brightness
control still does nothing.
EXPECTED RESULT
When the screen locking is aborted by shaking the mouse, everything should go
back to normal, including the screen brightness. Always (as opposed to most of
the times).
This is absolutely crazy and I think it's a relatively recent regression. I
have already observed this a couple of times, but I had never seen it happen
until recently.
