Better display please! 2256x1504 is so 2010!
For 13" screen isn't that more than enough? I barely see pixel grid on 1080p display.
A Framework Model 100 conversion would be pretty awesome...
I still hope to see a non-x86 version. The less bloat the better.
ARM-powered Windows devices have been terrible, and the only good Chromebooks I've seen are x86.
I’ll wait to see if they have proper “sleep” mode such that they don’t keep draining batter while not in use, particularly when running Linux. This is something that baffles me about non Apple Laptops how they just refuse to catch up to such a great benefit.. (alongside the trackpad experience which I can may be live with).
It might be a bit of tinkering but you can enable suspend-then-hibernate with logind/systemd which gives you a similar setup to Macbooks but slightly slower to wake from deep sleep as it needs to go through post/grub again. With the bigger battery provide and new CPU I do hope it lasts longer when idle though.
> If you're upgrading your Framework Laptop to the new Mainboard, remember that you'll need ... a Ryzen-compatible RZ616 or similar WiFi card. Why does WiFi card need to be "compatible" with CPU? Isn't it enough to be compatible with PCI-Express? Or are there backdoors that do not work with Intel-backdoor-compatible WiFi cards?
Can't wait to see some performance reviews on these new Framework laptops
Seems you unfortunately are gonna have to wait a while for that...

Many laptops these days only implement s2idle and no proper s3 support which is the main culprit. My lenovo only does a day (at best) in s2idle under linux (windows is worse), when I switched it to s3 it does about 4 days as expected for the amd cpu. Fortunately this has a switch in the bios (which says windows won't work afterwards which is cow manure). You get the added benefit that windows can't phone home when yo…

Thats an understatement. I never made suspend-then-hibernate work reliable on linux and I tried it over the years on different systems. So I just had developed the habit of always entering hibernation, if I intend to close the lid for longer.
On windows suspend-then-hibernate never failed so far.
Drivers are just the crux with linux in too many cases. Not much you can do about it, except reverse engeneering drivers as a side project.
I am puzzled by the lack of keyboard layouts for Switzerland (we have the cash to spend on such novelties!). Also, no DVORAK? Is this for hackers or not?

A real hacker uses blank keys.
