I've made some progress on suspend with FreeBSD on my Thinkpad T14 gen2i

Turns out there's a simple BIOS setting to enable S3 suspend—now it works!
Sort of, that is:

- I'm getting tons of errors from the intel wifi driver on resume, and have to do `service netif restart` to get it working again
- The screen isn't locked on suspend; guess I have to add an rc.d script for that
- For some reason, the shutdown button in Xfce doesn't shutdown anymore after I've resumed from suspend, but only logs me out

But I'm getting closer, and learning a lot in the progress. More debugging tomorrow!

The wait begins!

At a substantially higher cost than we paid in 2020 for the current one, a #Lenovo #Thinkpad has been ordered, and will make its way to me over the next 2-3 weeks.

It'll be #Windows11 & I'm excited about the new changes expected in W11 through this year!

i am preparing to weave some bands to put on hats, here is a sketch of the situation (after i got the yarns under control and into their boxes)

@regendans Interesting! So Noctalia is a window manager? I hadn't heard about it, but it seems there's quite a lot happening with it. There's no entry for it on the #ArchWiki, surprisingly.

I've been using #Labwc on my old #Thinkpad as a lightweight #KDE alternative, which is pretty nice too. An #Openbox alternative for #Wayland.

Apparently my #ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 with a #Qualcomm SoC is faster than my #Framework13 with Intel Core Ultra 125H: https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/compare/16645340?baseline=17377862 - at least according to #GeekBench 6
Framework Laptop 13 (Intel Core Ultra Series 1) vs LENOVO 21N10008PB - Geekbench

Any #Thinkpad experts here?

I have an older L420 on which I installed LInux. After it gets to the bios and before it opens the bootloader it beeps a seemingly random number of times. I have counted anywhere from 5 to 13 beeps. After it's done with this, it boots normally.

I've already flashed the latest bios and loaded the default values. No change.

Any idea what this could be? I've looked at several websites which explain thinkpad beepcodes, but none mention this behavior.

I checked the RAM and ran it with only one of the two installed modules, tested both and tested every slot, no change.

(the last, higher, beep is me turning the computer back off)

[Edit:] It seems to have been the keyboard, after cleaning and reseating the flat flex cable of the keyboard the issue is gone.

Najbardziej podoba mi się wątek poprawy dźwięku przez podłączanie głośników do płyty głównej z iPada albo Nexusa 6P :D

Hé les copaines, #question #informatique :

#kessessé que toutes ces séries de #portables #THINKPAD que #LENOVO nous a pondu, boudiou ? Comment je fais pour choisir moi ? 😱

Vous pensez qu'on peut toujours être (quasi) sur que n'importe quel #linux va tourner dessus ? (pas de double boot hein, du nunux pur et dur !)

Bref, je dois trouver un nouveau portable, je prends tous vos retours. J'ai vu aussi un LOQ en 17'', c'est quoi cette série, c'est pour "jouer" ?
