I haven't bothered to actually search or troubleshoot yet, but since I'm here - have you had any problems with power management failing to automatically turn screens off when idle?

I don't get consistent behavior there it seems (AKA it leaves them on when it shouldn't), but that's I think the only significant oddity I've found in the ~7 months or so I've been running Bazzite. And like I said I've done basically nothing yet to try to solve it, just wondering if you've seen it. I have the issue on a desktop and a laptop, using entirely different monitors (not even same brand) FWIW.

I haven't had any problems like that, but I generally don't leave my screen on. So perhaps I would have this issue, but just never notice it because of how I use the device.

I'm very conscious of energy use, I almost always manually set my laptop to sleep if I'm leaving it idle for a while.
