Hi there!

I need some help with my framework laptop and fedora. I want to switch to linux more permanently, but fedora does not enter hibernation properly when closing the lid. I dont care 10-20sec of wakeup time when opening it again. (even windows is more efficient?!) The relatively bad performance on battery life is OK for me, I already installed TLP instead of the default power management. But when closing the lid, the battery drains about 80% over night (10h?) which seems to be more than what other people reported.

I could not find a guide on this, which i understood (still a massive noob to afraid to mess up my carefully crafted linux partition :D).

If you have any advice I appreciate it! Thanks a lot! :)

    That is almost equivalent to 1h of browsing in Linux! :D \s Other expension cards are drawing about 1W of power, even without use! That’s crazy much I think…

      Kinda true though. I wish Framework would focus on power usage a bit. As much as I love the concept and laptop the battery life is not one of its strong points. I’ve done a lot of tuning and squeeze about 6-7 hrs out at ~40% screen brightness.

        In Linux?! That’s quite a bit. With heavy workload?

          Yeah, but with a light workload (browsing, some videos, office applications). It lasts longer than Windows where I get like 5 hours.
