[SOLVED] kscreenlocker: failed login timeout

Hello!

I have my PAM configured to have “nodelay” for a failed login attempt (yes, it’s my local system which I don’t care about - I need convenience there)

kscreenlocker seems to have its own failed login timeout.

Previously (on Plasma 5) I was able to tune it by changing /usr/share/plasma/look-and-feel/org.kde.breeze.desktop/contents/lockscreen/LockScreenUi.qml (there was a graceLockTimer)

Now, after upgrading to Plasma 6, it seems like this file is not used anymore

Running /lib/kscreenlock_greet with strace also doesn’t show any qml files being used.

Does anyone know where this timeout is hardcoded nowadays? I’m happy to build kscreenlocker from source code, but I can’t see that setting in the source code too

Hi,

the code moved to /usr/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/lockscreen/LockScreenUi.qml

Thank you very much! I don't know how I missed that file, but altering it indeed worked
