So which laptops do a good job of reliably supporting S3 standby/suspend? Any idea if the Framework laptop does?

- chx 5y agoYou can check which ThinkPad BIOS has the option at their BIOS emulation site: https://download.lenovo.com/bsco/index.html https://download.lenovo.com/bsco/index.html For mine it's under Config // Power // Sleep State. Windows 10 means useless Modern Standby, Linux means S3. https://i.imgur.com/Y5CchL9.png https://i.imgur.com/Y5CchL9.png In this covid helped me because I learned about this before I cooked my expensive new laptop in its bag :(
- lpcvoid 5y agoWow, that is an incredibly cool thing for an OEM to offer. Never seen this for any other vendor before.
- tlavoie 5y agoWhat does it mean if there is no sleep setting here? I haven't actually rebooted my P50 yet, but the simulator doesn't have this option showing.
- chx 5y agoThe P50 very well might predate this Modern stuff. Type powercfg -a and see: The following sleep states are available on this system: Standby (S3)
- tlavoie 5y agoTrue enough, thanks for the info. I can't complain either way, whatever suspend mode I have works well and quickly. Hibernate does work (all under Linux here as a rule). I'll have to try powercfg next time I boot into Windows.
- sfotm 5y agoThe Framework Laptop does not support S3 suspend. I have it running with S2deep in Linux, which works okay, but it isn’t a fantastic scenario. Hibernation is the way when the processor doesn’t support S3, unfortunately. Even Windows would fall back to it after a short duration.
- zmk5 5y agoYes, this is my only beef with the laptop so far. I really hope we get a firmware update with S3 enabled soon.
