The GNOME Project is a free and open source desktop and computing platform for open platforms like Linux that strives to be an easy and elegant way to use your computer. GNOME software is developed openly and ethically by both individual contributors and corporate partners, and is distributed under the GNU General Public License.

This Lemmy community is not affiliated with the GNOME project.

Rules:

1. Trolling, flamewars, or poor discussion

We ask all users to follow the GNOME Code of Conduct. Top violations of this rule are trolling, starting a flamewar, "shitposting", or not "remembering the human" aka being hostile or incredibly impolite.

2. No memes, image macros, or rage comics

Meme posts are not allowed. Feel free to post over at !linuxhumor instead.

3. Relevance to GNOME community

Posts should follow what the community likes: GNOME, GNOME development, GNOME applications, the GNOME foundation, GTK+, Flatpak or Flathub, and more. Take some time to get the feel of the community if you're not sure!

4. Post and dash

Posting content is welcome (duh), but we do ask that you contribute more than just your content to the subreddit. We as well require you stick around and interact with the comments of your submission. If you post something and abandon it, it may be treated as spam.

5. No misdirected links, paywalls, or URL shorteners

In short: if your link doesn't go right to the content it will be removed. Sites that require a login to view the content are not allowed. Example: A private Facebook post or a news organization that doesn't have free article views. URL shorteners and links that misdirect users to ads/jokes are also banned.

6. NSFW

No NSFW links or content.

7. No rage posts

We do not shy away from criticism, in fact, we encourage it! However, criticisms of GNOME must be accompanied with valid, well reasoned arguments. Posts that contain no original content and are meant to just spread hatred and anger will not be tolerated.

8. Spam

For obvious reasons, spam is not tolerated. Spam content will be removed, and spam accounts will be banned. This also applies to bot accounts.

Solution:
Apparently it is by design! I had to use “Unblank” extension to change the behaviour.

Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing an issue with GNOME 46 where my screen goes black immediately after locking. Here's a bit more detail about my setup and the troubleshooting steps I've already taken:

System: Manjaro Linux Release: 24.0.4
Display: Single monitor setup (1920x1080 resolution)

Steps Taken:
Checked and adjusted Settings > Power > Blank screen and Settings > Privacy > Screen Lock settings.
Ensured monitor configuration is correct in Settings > Displays.
Updated system.
Disabled all GNOME Shell extensions.
Verified GNOME Shell and related packages are up to date.
Reviewed logs using journalctl -xe but found nothing conclusive.
Reset GNOME settings with dconf reset -f /org/gnome/.
Checked and updated graphics drivers.
Disabled lock screen fade animation with gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver lock-delay 0.

Despite all these efforts, the issue persists. Has anyone else encountered this problem or have any suggestions on how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Does this happen on a freshly created user? Or does it happen just for your user account?

Yes.
