Description tim.holy 2014-06-30 19:09:59 UTC
Problem description: 
When presenting, it would be nice if [screensaver notifications](https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325643) didn't show up.

Steps to reproduce:
0. Have KDE installed on your laptop (I'm using Kubuntu 14.04). Perhaps it works on other desktops too, but I can't test it.
1. Launch loimpress and start a presentation
2. Plug and unplug the power from your laptop

Current behavior:
The screen brightness OSD shows up above the presentation. This also happens periodically if you're presenting without the powercord plugged in and haven't advanced a slide in a while.

Expected behavior:
The OSD should not be displayed.
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.2.4.2 release

This is fixed as a side-effect of adding screensaver / powermanagement inhibition support for KDE:

(Note: the brightness OSD will still appear if you manually change screen brightness, but that IMHO is not a bug. The issue here is that automated changes shouldn't be happening during presentations.)
