Does anybody know if this solves the S3/Hibernate/Sleep issues users have experienced with Ubuntu on the Framework laptop? I've heard some tales of serious battery drain overnight, but it doesn't seem to be mentioned in the article. And I can't CTRL+F on the website because apparently that button combo brings up...

forum search? Somehow? How and why on earth does Framework override CTRL+F on their forum? Is there someplace I can disable their ability to override this in Firefox?

Gotta say that it’s a bit supervising that these are issues you’re still dealing with. I remember power management issues being a problem 10 years ago when I replaced Windows on my shitty Dell laptop, and I wouldn’t expect the same from a manufacturer shipping Linux-first devices.

I have `mem_sleep_default=deep` set in my kernel parameters. Resuming takes 8-10 seconds. If it loses any charge overnight, I don’t notice it.

I’m using Arch, FWIW.

Possibly this means yes?

Control + double F works with few of these modern forum softwares that override it.

Using Fedora but the framework laptop is great! The screen ratio is a bit different than what expected but on the other hand it handles three tiled emacs windows well with the slightly taller aspect ratio.
