  1. Gestern Abend wollte ich den Akku meines #Laptop an einer Dockstation voll laden. Ging aber nicht. Ich: „Wieso?” Laptop an eine Ladestation gehängt: Laden funktioniert.

    Neugierde geweckt, zurück an die Docking Station. Kernel-Logs durchgescrollt. Nix gefunden. Akku-Stand 55%. Letzte Woche hatte ich mal im BIOS von #S3 auf #S2Idle umgestellt. Rückgängig gemacht, keine Besserung. *kopfkratz*, zurück ins BIOS. Zwischendurch andere Dinge gemacht, dann zurück zum Rechner. Ladestand des Akkus sinkt plötzlich auf 50% und *pling*, er wird geladen.

    Mir dämmert etwas. In den vergangenen Wochen habe ich mal an einem Laptop unseres Familienhaushalts das Ladeverhalten umgestellt, nämlich erst ab 50% zu laden. Ich weiß aber nicht mehr, welches Gerät es gewesen ist :-/ Also suche ich bei meinem Laptop, einem Tuxedo, verzweifelt eine solche Einstellungsmöglichkeit. Aber ich finde nichts. Nichts im BIOS, nicht in der KDE-Energieverwaltung und auch nicht im TUXEDO Control Center.

    Weiß jemand Rat? So ganz kann es ja mit den 50% auch nicht stimmen, wenn das Laptop an der USB-Ladestation einfach so geladen hat. Kann man die Dockingstation etwa entsprechend konfigurieren?

  2. So, apparently in the past years, S3 sleep was removed from most Laptops and replaced with s0ix / s2idle / "modern sleep".

    First night, my new Laptop drew about 40% power from the battery which prompted me to look into this fantastic topic that will surely not create many issues in the future.

    After some initial tweaking, I am now down to around 0.7-1 Wh per hour of standby which still seems more than the previous one with S3 sleep.

    What is your experience?

  3. @piegames @raito

    I tested this and it's quite easy to reproduce:
    The #FW16 laptop wakes up whenever the power is plugged or unplugged.

    Say you had it plugged in, suspended and with the lid closed. If you then plugged it out to take it with you, it'll turn itself on despite the lid being closed and you probably wouldn't notice.
    Same with plugging it in while the lid is closed but that isn't quite as bad as the battery would at least be charging then. (Still not ideal as the trapped heat could damage the display.)

    Quite a simple causal link and easy to avoid if you know about it but nasty if you don't.

    Could this be changed @frameworkcomputer? A laptop should never under any condition turn itself on while the lid is closed.

    It should arguably not even turn itself on when the lid is open but that's not nearly as bad as you'd at least notice that it did this by the display and power indicator turning on. You'd also ordinarily close the lid to transport the latpop which should cause the OS to suspend it again; preventing you finding a hot and empty laptop in your bag when you arrive.

    There's no such excuse when the lid is closed though.

  4. Are you wondering why your laptop drains battery faster when it is in "sleep" mode (suspend to RAM, standby) or why it may even be hot and running when you take it out of your backpack? Well this is probably why:

  5. After replacing #TLP with Power Profiles Daemon (#PPD) and #Powertop, my #Framework laptop went to the normal behaviour when suspending on #Fedora

    For suspending to idle (#s2idle), the total battery drain of a full night (9:45 hours) has been of 4%, which means we've went from 1.55%/hour to 0.41%/hour.
