Another feature I'm yet to have any confidence in is that I can just close a Linux laptop, and have it do a pretty much perfect suspend that will come back to life in 2-3 seconds even if it's been closed for days.
- josteink 10y agoAs a counter example, I've yet had this to be a problem on any laptop I've owned. It works 100% reliably 100% of the time.
- jeena 10y agoSame here, both on ThinkPad and on my Tuxedo laptop with Ubuntu, Debian and Arch. I had issues with OS X sometimes that I put the MacBook into a bag and it would get hotter and hotter because it didn't sleep and the air couldn't move, untill it panicked and shut itself down to not start burning.
- pareidolia 10y agoI started owning laptops in 2007. There's a real difference between ACPI DSDTs compiled with the Microsoft compiler versus the Intel compiler (surprise surprise) Acer/Wistron laptop with MSFT DSDT would reset spontaneously instead of waking up from sleep.
- dTal 10y agoI have no complaints about suspend itself, but I do find lidswitch detection to be faintly unreliable on various laptops. I often find my laptop fully powered up and hot in my backpack. I suspect poor debounce.
