[Help, Fedora] power and lock screen management (feddit.org)

Hi.

I'm using Fedora KDE spin since last year, and have a need for the commands / a script to change power management and lock screen settings via the console (instead of manually going through the GUI).

I tried googling the commands, but feel like I didn't even get into the right direction.

If anyone could point me into the correct direction, that'd be greatly appreciated. A ready solution is nice, but I'd also like to know how to find such things by myself in the future.

Sorry if I use the wrong terminology, I used Windows until I switched last year.

(I posted this weeks ago in the /c/Fedora, but unfortunately didn't get any replies.)

You can use the fedora direct sources to search their discourse forum. Google and Microsoft are likely warping your search results intentionally to drive you back onto Windows. Search is not deterministic any more. It is individually targeted.

I have never used KDE much, so I have no idea. You are probably looking for KDE settings. These would likely be part of gsettings in GNOME. That is not really a fedora thing. You need to look in the KDE documentation. This is the kind of thing that gets easier with time but can be frustrating at first.

Sorry I'm not more helpful than this. It is 2am in California and I didn't want to leave you with no replies at all.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
