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.

I was running KDE Neon on ThinkBook 15 G2 and had deep sleep working after adding mem_sleep_default=deep to GRUB_CMDLINE. It worked for a while until it didn't. I didn't do anything other than running regulat updates. Since couple weeks back, when going to sleep, it shows BIOS Recovery progress bar or something and restarts.

I switched to Debian and the behavior is the same. S2 sleep is next to useless as it drains something like 10% battery / hour, and the lap top is warm to touch.

so cat /sys/power/mem_sleep or whatever outputs with the brackets on deep?

[–] Tushta 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah, if the bracket is on deep, it crashes and enter the BIOS recovery thingy. If it's s2idle, it does what it says on the tin.
