For mine it's under Config // Power // Sleep State. Windows 10 means useless Modern Standby, Linux means S3. https://i.imgur.com/Y5CchL9.png

In this covid helped me because I learned about this before I cooked my expensive new laptop in its bag :(

Wow, that is an incredibly cool thing for an OEM to offer. Never seen this for any other vendor before.

What does it mean if there is no sleep setting here? I haven't actually rebooted my P50 yet, but the simulator doesn't have this option showing.

The P50 very well might predate this Modern stuff.

Type

powercfg -a

and see:

The following sleep states are available on this system:

Standby (S3)

True enough, thanks for the info. I can't complain either way, whatever suspend mode I have works well and quickly. Hibernate does work (all under Linux here as a rule).

I'll have to try powercfg next time I boot into Windows.

The Framework Laptop does not support S3 suspend. I have it running with S2deep in Linux, which works okay, but it isn’t a fantastic scenario. Hibernation is the way when the processor doesn’t support S3, unfortunately. Even Windows would fall back to it after a short duration.

Yes, this is my only beef with the laptop so far. I really hope we get a firmware update with S3 enabled soon.
