Haven't had the time yet, but it's on my to-do list. Just not sure if they will support this as I'm running it on my own hardware, not their laptop.

6.11.0-109019-tuxedo.

Not the latest, right? I guess I'll wait for an update.

Does the system also freeze on lock screen without the sleep? superkey(winkey)+L

No, lock screen works fine.

Cheers for the links, I'll look into that!

That's interesting! Might be KDE bug then.

Could you try going to System Settings → Screen Locking and de-select "Lock after waking from sleep"? I wonder if you'll get the same result as I'm getting.

Before I updated the BIOS to the latest version, once I woke it up, I'd see the desktop exactly frozen as it was the moment I pressed the "Sleep" button.

Now, after the update, that freeze happens BEFORE the PC goes to sleep - the monitors stay on.

Oh, yeah, that's true! Didn't know that's a thing here, good to know!

I did some more digging and in System Settings → Screen Locking found an option called "Lock after waking from sleep". Since the OS was freezing on the lock screen, I disabled that to see what happens.

The OS freezes completely just before the shutdown to sleep - I can see ALL devices get booted out - network, BT, audio, mouse, keyboard - everything gets disconnected and then freeze happens.

I have updated the BIOS to the latest version and since then the freeze happens BEFORE the OS goes to sleep. As in: I click the Sleep button, everything freezes, that's it, the screens never turn off.

So it doesn't seem like it's something that's happening in BIOS during wake-up/reboot, right?

11:48 - Sleep

11:50 - Wake

11:52 - Reboot

I noticed something that might be helpful, not sure.

I was fiddling with settings to see if I can do anything about this on my own. Found the "Screen Locking" settings and disabled "Lock after waking from sleep". Got some interesting results!

Nothing changes when I put the device to sleep, but now, when I wake it up, I can see the desktop, as it was when I issued the sleep command. Everything is frozen and all devices are disconnected - no network, no Bluetooth, no audio, all the "tray" icons are greyed out and/or showing errors.

I'm running it on a desktop PC, so not sure if they'd cover it. But I might poke them about it, good idea.

Yeah, had a brain fart. It's a freeze.

Did you nuke your Tuxedo OS install?

No, I'm still running it. Other than Sleep, everything else works mostly fine. Just the regular "linuxiness" here and there that's either easy to sort out, or easy to ignore.

What problems exactly did you have with Kubuntu?

Wow, that's a whole list... :D

On my laptop, I had zero touchpad gestures. Once I switched from X11 to Wayland I managed to get Firefox to handle pinch-to-zoom and forward/back, but nothing else and in no other application.

Bluetooth drivers were crap, made my $300 headphones sound like $10 headphones.

I accidentally set the wrong keyboard language during installation, changed it without any issues after signing in... But to this day that previous layout pops up on the login screen. The only advice I found online required quite heavy Terminal "hacking"... and didn't work anyway.

Updates are all over the place. They're coming in constantly, practically every day, often requiring a reboot. It also doesn't install any updates on its own, so even if there are smaller, security updates that don't require a reboot, you have to manually click through the notification and apply them. There was supposed to be another "hack" that makes it apply updates automatically, but it doesn't work.

I recently connected my Linux laptop to an external screen. All good, but... The login screen was displayed on both monitors. I clicked the login field on the external screen, started typing and nothing happened. Fiddled with that for a bit before, just out of curiosity, trying again, but this time fully on the laptop screen. Worked like a charm, zero issues.

That was the laptop. Then on my PC, I suddenly realised that I have not application menu (the one with "File", "View", "Edit", etc.). Just gone. Wasn't able to restore it.

Also, my secondary SSD would not stay mounted. Any time I rebooted, it was just gone - and that was a problem for me because I had my Steam library there and wanted to have Steam auto-starting on logon. That I was able to fix by editing fstab, but was still super annoying.

The move to Tuxedo OS was very smooth. Almost everything worked out of the box (still had to do the fstab bit), the Bluetoot driver is MUCH better, updates are more controlled. It's just this bloody Sleep feature that doesn't work. :D

Sorry, mate, I'm a Linux noob.

I have no clue where to find the logs for this.

No idea what a VT is.

Don't know how to boot into single user mode....

Sorry, forgot to mention hardware! Added in an edit now!

I have a Ryzen 7 7800X3D and no dedicated GPU (yet).

I ran sudo update-grub after making the changes. That and rebooting a bunch of times since.
