May s.b. will steal your laptop, when you are at lunch π
In general I'm with, but the standby current is really low, especially when writing the memory to disk...
When locking the screen. The running programs will freeze until you unlock it again.
One important benefit will be, that it discards the key when locking the screen (when integrated in the DE). So the drive is protected when you are not at your machine. The old mechanism only discards the key when restarting the computer. But who shuts his/hers laptop down...
Did you try FreeCAD 1.0 rc?
My suggestion, ignore those desktop fights. Just use what fits best to you. Save your energy for something useful, eg contributing.
No, I don't think so.
So I guess it's not a Gnome thing, but an underlying driver, HW thing...
I'm using Gnome 47 and I can adjust the keyboard brightness of my laptop in the menu top right. I don't think, I did any special adjustments. Is this what you were looking for?
Looks like it's up again.
Could you please elaborate? I'm not sure if I get your points.
This is up to the implementation of the DE π
Also on the phone you want probably listen to music, when it is locked.
Gnome plans to add some options like, if you want to use this feature at all or lock securely only after X time after screen is locked. But I think. the implementation hasn't really started yet
For sure all DE will provide some options.
