KDE Plasma 6.6 will finally stop the system sleeping when gaming with a controller

  Steam and Heroic already block sleep while a game is running. For everything else gamemoderun can be used, which also blocks sleep. It’s a nice fix but it’s not as big of a deal was it may seem.

    I’ve had it once years ago and I just disabled sleep mode altogether.

  Fixed an issue in Spectacle that could make some toolbars in Rectangular Region mode appear off-screen when using a multi-monitor setup where not all screens share a baseline.

  This one's big for me too cuz my monitors logical layout in KDE follows their physical layout (With my tablet below the right-hand monitor), and if you try to screenshot things on the left monitor, the toolbar with the option to Save the screenshot always fell off of the screen

    You use your tablet as monitor? How does that work, KDE Connect over WiFi or something?

      Oh its a Drawing Tablet with a screen, an XP-PEN Artist Pro 13.3. It basically is just a standalone monitor that has a pen and digitizer for art

  yeah but how do we get our ps4 controllers to turn off on their own without having run to the shithub

    Does Steam’s controller timeout setting not work with yours? It works on both my PS5 and 8BitDo controller on openSUSE Tumbleweed.

    If you have Steam running, I believe you can disconnect with a quick PS+Triangle. Otherwise just hold down the PS button for a few seconds, which is annoying but better than switching tasks.

      10! ten whole seconds! almost enough time for the first part of the dial-up tone to get started
