            Bug ID: 348529
           Summary: Turn off screen after lock screen
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
               URL: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=126643&p=3
                    35754
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kde@davidedmundson.co.uk

Since locking the screen means no interaction with the computer, it would be
more natural for there to be a time-out feature for the screen to turn itself
off after a set amount of time, to save energy.

The following code was contributed by luebking on the KDE forums which can
implement this feature. I hope that there will be a simple GUI toggle for this
feature in future versions of the lock screen or power management settings.

[code]
qdbus org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver /org/freedesktop/ScreenSaver Lock
sleep 20
if [ "`qdbus org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver /org/freedesktop/ScreenSaver
GetActive`" = "true" ]; then
   xset dpms force off
fi
[/code]

Reproducible: Always
