Just bought my first gamepad ever (a Logitech F310) which worked like a charm out of the box. So I started playing some native Linux games. Then I tried Proton games, in particular RiME. After a while playing (10 or 15 minutes), my screen went black: it was my screensaver that went power saving. So I had to move my mouse to come back to the game.
Is this normal? Or is just something that happens with Wine/Proton? Any fix apart from disabling the screensaver?
I'm using latest KDE and there's no option to avoid power saving when using a gamepad/joystick, from what I see...

After installing, just put "gamemoderun %command%" in whatever game's launch options. On top of whatever optimizations it runs, personally I haven't messed with the config at all :P, it also keeps the screensaver from activating while the game is running. It does also seem to make some games run smoother for me (like Yakuza 0, for example).
