#42Does this mean i can suspend my Linux laptop to ram now?
Yes, very happy Thinkpad P14s user here on EndeavourOS.
Re: Linux 6.11 Released
#436.10 (TEN, the previous one) has been a very problematic release for me, with one desktop running into four major bugs in total: three separate amdgpu bugs resulting in video corruption, hangs and crashes, and now that I'm on 6.10.10 and those seem to be fixed, the system intermittently refuses to come up from sleep mode. Anyone else having similar experience? This is the first time something like that happened in a…
How does Linux handle testing? They don't seem to have a CI system as far as I know. Presumably there's no big lab with automated testing on real hardware. Does anyone know how releases are tested?

I am really surprised with RNDA3 support. I have never seen so many issue with iGPU (APU). It started with VP9 decoder issue (e.g. just playing videos on YouTube was enough to trigger it), but that got fixed after a very long time (required a new firmware). Multiple constant [different] crashes, but you can workaround most of them by adding amdgpu.sg_display=0 to your bootargs. It's already listed in Arch Linux wiki, Gentoo wiki, etc.
Again, I was surprised by the number of firmware and driver issues since RNDA1/2/3 have been around for years now.

6.10.5 fixed all my amdgpu issues.

As far as I remember, there is some automated testing before release but very limited in scope.

This is the latest news I could find about snapdragon support
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.11-SoC-Platforms
EDIT: looking at the tree of 6.11, these 2 laptops are still the only "supported"† ones
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/lin...
† as in bootable, but still don't work fully (e.g. touchpad not working, battery monitoring not working, camera not working, usb/hdmi not working fully)

#49Does this mean i can suspend my Linux laptop to ram now?
I thought the issue with this nowadays was that hardware support for suspend-to-ram has been increasingly removed from hardware.
At the same time, S3 sleep worked just fine on supported hardware 10 years ago. So what does suspend-to-ram have to do with Linux 6.11 in particular?

amdgpu on my 6.10 kernel has been crashing constantly too. It makes me want to go back to Intel. My workaround has been to let the ryzen 7700 iGPU run at its max clockspeed of 2200 Mhz …
