From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Anyone have a good working hibernate set-up in Linux? (lemmy.ca)

My set-up is roughly analogous to this: https://community.frame.work/t/guide-fedora-36-hibernation-with-enabled-secure-boot-and-full-disk-encryption-fde-decrypting-over-tpm2/25474

Summary is that I use full-disk encryption (FDE) and use the TPM to decrypt the swap, and use full lockdown mode with a kernel patched to allow hibernation.

Suspend-then-hibernate (in my opinion) is a must-have feature for a laptop that goes in a backpack -- if I close my laptop's lid and put it in my backpack, I expect it to both not overheat, and to have some amount of battery left regardless of when I decide to take it out again.

Anyway, does anyone have it working well, or any other tips?

One thing I've been toying with is using a systemd script to drop the filesystem caches before hibernating to have it resume faster.

I am currently back to running EndeavourOS after PopOS had severe issue running.

Hibernate/sleep out of the box seems to function just fine on my desktop. I’m running a Ryzen 3600, Nvidia RTX 2060, 32GB ddr4 21xx.

It is setup to lock itself after about ten minutes. Then if no activity for an hour will go into sleep/hibernate. Mouse will not wake it but keyboard works fine and I’m back to login within 10s or so.
