Screen Goes Black Immediately After Locking in GNOME 46 - Any Fixes?

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!

Add YOUR city to the Gnome weather app

cross-posted from: [email protected] | https://lemmy.eco.br/post/1969330

I've been using Gnome for about 10 months and it always bothered me that my city (with more than a million inhabitants) was not found in the Weather program.

I looked for solutions several times and never found them, until I found this thread yesterday. That the user Julian made a script that solves this problem. you just have to run and enter the name of your city and then confirm.

script

```bash #!/bin/bash

if [[ ! -z "$(which gnome-weather)" ]]; then system=1 fi

if [[ ! -z "$(flatpak list | grep org.gnome.Weather)" ]]; then flatpak=1 fi

if [[ ! $system == 1 && ! $flatpak == 1 ]]; then echo "GNOME Weather isn't installed" exit fi

if [[ ! -z "$" ]]; then query="$" else read -p "Type the name of the location you want to add to GNOME Weather: " query fi

query="$(echo $query | sed 's/ /+/g')"

request=$(curl "https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?q=$query&format=json&limit=1" -s)

if [[ $request == "[]" ]]; then echo "No locations found, consider removing some search terms" exit fi

read -p "If this is not the location you wanted, consider adding search terms Are you sure you want to add $(echo $request | sed 's/."display_name":"//' | sed 's/".//')? [y/n] : " answer

if [[ ! $answer == "y" ]]; then echo "Not adding location" exit else echo "Adding location" fi

id=$(echo $request | sed 's/."place_id"://' | sed 's/,.//')

name=$(curl "https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=$id&format=json" -s | sed 's/."name": "//' | sed 's/".//')

lat=$(echo $request | sed 's/."lat":"//' | sed 's/".//') lat=$(echo "$lat / (180 / 3.141592654)" | bc -l)

lon=$(echo $request | sed 's/."lon":"//' | sed 's/".//') lon=$(echo "$lon / (180 / 3.141592654)" | bc -l)

if [[ $system == 1 ]]; then locations=$(gsettings get org.gnome.Weather locations) fi

if [[ $flatpak == 1 ]]; then locations=$(flatpak run --command=gsettings org.gnome.Weather get org.gnome.Weather locations) fi

location="<(uint32 2, <('$name', '', false, [($lat, $lon)], @a(dd) [])>)>"

if [[ $system == 1 ]]; then if [[ ! $(gsettings get org.gnome.Weather locations) == "@av []" ]]; then gsettings set org.gnome.Weather locations "$(echo $locations | sed "s|>]|>, $location]|")" else gsettings set org.gnome.Weather locations "[$location]" fi fi

if [[ $flatpak == 1 ]]; then if [[ ! $(flatpak run --command=gsettings org.gnome.Weather get org.gnome.Weather locations) == "@av []" ]]; then flatpak run --command=gsettings org.gnome.Weather set org.gnome.Weather locations "$(echo $locations | sed "s|>]|>, $location]|")" else flatpak run --command=gsettings org.gnome.Weather set org.gnome.Weather locations "[$location]" fi fi

```

It occurred to me that some people might not know how to run scripts, so here's a brief tutorial:

How to run scripts in Linux
  1. Save the script to a text file and save with the .sh extension
  2. Provide execute permission: chmod u+x script.sh
  3. run the script by double clicking or ./script.sh
