While it is nice to have a workaround based on changing the configuration in the screen, I'd really appreciate to get an actual fix.
I actually need my screen to stay with "auto select input" ON because I have a screen with built-in KVM switch and use 2 devices (PC & laptop). Therefore disabling this option is not possible for me. Any ideas on an actual fix? With Ubuntu 22.04 on the same hardware I had no problems at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1971434 Title: Display powersave only blanks, but does not turn off Status in Mutter: New Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: [ Impact ] On some machines when the screen blanks, the LCD backlight stays on.
