Disable suspend
If I leave my machine overnight (NucBox M7) it goes into a suspend state with the power button blinking.
I need to press the power button to turn it back on (it turns on very quickly).
I've tried disabling the various power management options in KDE, but it doesn't seem to work. If I'm SSH'd into the machine from my laptop, I can see 'The system will suspend now!'
How do I stop this automatic suspend?

I'm guessing this service is probably inherited from Fedora Atomic Desktop, but perhaps it's something SteamDeck specific (which would make sense, as it's a handheld)
The suspend options on desktop are only for desktop.
Gamemode has its own options (idk if they are modifiable though, currently waiting for an appointment so got no device in front of me to check on)
yea, you can disable suspend in Gamemode. It's in the display section. I do that sometimes to be able to jump back later (suspend wrecks some things).
thanks for confirming you can change it, i just got home and would not been able to check before now
ahhh I found the problem (I think). The setting was in the Steam app itself which puts the "deck" to sleep after 1H
Thanks for your help!
