Is the suspend and power managment problem a OS independent HW flaw or is there still something to fix in Linux?

  this is the biggest problem I have with Framework. I would not have bought a 12Gen for Linux had I realized it was an issue.

  Some of the power management issues have been fixed semirecently with a firmware update for the thunderbolt controller IIRC

  It's hard to know for sure without being involved in the development of both sides (the line between new features being unimplemented & hw/firmware being buggy is often blurry), but here is some context: * Linux 5.x does not support most 12th gen power-management/igpu, >6.1 does * According to a few (unconfirmed) sources, there were workarounds required that first came from clean-linux >6.x (intel's linux fork). So most likely it's a mix of new hw breaking existing functionality, and new features not being implemented yet at release
