Does this mean i can suspend my Linux laptop to ram now?
- fsflover 2y agoIf you choose the right laptop, yes. Works for me.
- johnnyApplePRNG 2y agoThinkpad L14 Gen 1, anybody care to take a guess?
- _cenw 2y agoYou have no idea how little that narrows it down, there's an Intel and an AMD variant.
- IshKebab 2y agolol so the answer is "probably not".
- johnnyApplePRNG 2y agoMy apologies, it runs a 4750u amd processor.
- _cenw 2y agoThat gen should still have "real" S3 sleep, with S2idle/S0ix (same thing, different name) being an option. I'd guess yes.

- shatsky 2y agoIs suspend-to-ram something that often doesn't work on laptops with Linux, really? I used it on dozens and saw problems maybe once or twice. Though I usually pick ones which are 3+ years old.
- _cenw 2y agoThe problem is that platforms are removing S3 and S2idle support wasn't great for a while. Those problems should be mostly resolved in 2024 though.
- quibuss 2y agoYes, very happy Thinkpad P14s user here on EndeavourOS.
- zh3 2y agoAlways worked for me on Thinkpads (T41/T61/T420/T520). T420 reports a somewhat optimistic "122 hours remaining" when coming out of sleep with a fully charged battery though.
- pxc 2y agoI thought the issue with this nowadays was that hardware support for suspend-to-ram has been increasingly removed from hardware. At the same time, S3 sleep worked just fine on supported hardware 10 years ago. So what does suspend-to-ram have to do with Linux 6.11 in particular?
- PhilipRoman 2y agoPretty vague question, suspend to ram has always worked for me on multiple random laptops
