Typically linux users (like myself) enable S3 sleep mode, which does exactly what most folks expect it to (sleep until a user action is taken). It's rock solid and I've never had a problem with it in ~8 years.
- nobleach 5y agoWhile there is a BIOS hack to supposedly do that on an XPS 9500/9510, I've yet to see anyone get it to work. I am typing this comment on a 9500 that is mostly great with Linux. Its battery life is subpar though. I'm limited to S2 Idle or deep sleep.
- Scarbutt 5y agoYes that part works, the issue is when you wake up the laptop, half the system is broken.
- heavyset_go 5y agoSleep and wake up have worked flawlessly for me across many machines over the years.
- wutbrodo 5y agoWhat are you referring to in particular? I've never had anything be broken, in 15 years of exclusive Linux use. Though I don't share the confidence half this thread has that my experiences are universal, so I'm curious what you're referring to that I've managed to avoid.
