Implementing battery charge limits in GNOME

It will mitigate battery loosing capacity over time.

So pleased to hear Framework is spinning up their own firmware and drivers team: https://frame.work/au/en/blog/enabling-software-longevity

This has been my only significant concern with Framework laptop ownership thus far. (There hasn't yet been a stable firmware release for Linux users in the 13+ months I've had my laptop.)

Is there anyone out there with a #FrameworkLaptop that they have installed #Debian 11 (bullseye) onto?

Any issues?

I'm currently in the process of designing an #ExpansionCard for my new #FrameworkLaptop.

I need the #Unifying #dongle (lower latency), but don't want it sticking out and losing a whole slot.

So I'm going to throw a USB hub and the peeled dongle on a PCB and hope it all works out :D

As a further experiment, I routed the USB A SS lines past the hub (USB 2 D+/D- connected to port 1 of the hub).
Not sure if this will play nice with USB drivers, but it's worth a try.

And with that, the is done!

It features room for 2-3 skinned dongles while still providing an external USB A 3 port.

I tested it and it works like a charm* !
The receiver and different USB 2 and even USB 3 devices worked on the first attempt.

Massive props to @frameworkcomputer for making the whole development process very easy, with all needed information already public and even supplying a base 3D-printing-ready model.

Hooray, my s2idle tests on the #FrameworkLaptop 16 have finished running!

In case you were wondering,

  • Yes, the system is capable of going into s2idle (or whatever AMD calls it today) out of the box on Linux.
  • Average system power draw in sleep appears to be 72 mA. This is with the power LED pulsing; I will try shutting that off next.

At the battery's design capacity of 5,491 mAh, this is about 3 days. That's not long enough for me, so I'll try a deeper (but slower to resume) sleep state.

Installed a Coral M.2 accelerator in my @frameworkcomputer server last night for https://frigate.video. Works perfectly in the wifi slot and much easier to VM passthrough than the USB stick! #FrameworkLaptop

I am very vaguely considering getting a #FrameworkLaptop --- does anyone have hands-on experience? I still have a TP T460s, and I am looking for a replacement. I don't need super-high performance or featherweight, but I want something somewhat robust with good support for Linux.

Feel free to boost for extra reach.

Here are the totally unnecessary but awesome LED matrix panels next to my broken keyboard. Both are displaying a brightness ramp. From the factory, they look like the one on the left -- not much of a ramp, because there's no gamma correction.

Fortunately this is not my first LED rodeo, so I have code for this -- and the firmware's in Rust.

Fixed version on the right, PR submitted. Gamma coefficient isn't perfect but it's better.

Golem hat das neue @frameworkcomputer 16 Laptop getestet

... Und ich schiele ja auch schon seit Jahren auf die Framework Laptops. Leider (und zum Glück) funktioniert mein aktueller noch gut. Aber sollte ich bald etwas neues kaufen müssen, wäre Framework auf jeden Fall in der engeren Auswahl.

Has anyone in #Canada ordered a #FrameworkLaptop? I’ve been toying with the idea but I’ve recently had issues with importing much less expensive stuff.

Did you have to pay duty and fees if just ordering direct?

It seems like the AMD Framework laptops have some pretty serious USB issues.

I hope @frameworkcomputer can get this sorted, mine pretty much has to go back in the drawer for a while until either firmware updates or future hardware revisions are available.

I hope this can be resolved. I really do want Framework and companies like them to succeed.

I may have to grab an Intel-based Dell for a while so that I have something reliable when away from home.

The refund for my Framework 13 is complete! It was a pretty easy process from start to finish. It took about 4 days from the laptop's delivery to the "Refund successful" e-mail.

I was also able to do a partial refund, keeping a few of the expansion cards and use them in the Framework 16 instead.

Watching #Fedora use a #FrameworkLaptop in all of the desktop and laptop marketing makes me feel real good about my Framework purchase a couple years ago.

One of these days, I’ll get another.

Framework has largely delivered on its hardware promises, with a series of modular, repairable, and upgradeable laptops. But the company has struggled with firmware updates. Framework hopes to change that moving forward. https://buff.ly/3UnMdFS #Framework #FrameworkLaptop #PCs #Laptops #ModularPCs #FirmwareUpdates

This makes having your @frameworkcomputer 16 Laptop on your lap a much more enjoable experience :-)

#Framework Laptop dostępny w Polsce.

Ale powiem szczerze, że za drogo. Myślę, że ciężko będzie, żeby zwykły użytkownik, czy nawet bardziej profesjonalny, wydał 7 tysięcy złotych na laptop 16" bez dysku i OS-a. Wiem, że można na nim bezproblemowo zainstalować Windows, ale czy taki komputer wystarczy do zadań profesjonalnych?

Ktoś może powiedzieć, że przecież MacBooki Pro są droższe, ale zauważmy, że one mają bardzo dobry system operacyjny, który jest świetnie dopasowany do konkretnego sprzętu i sprawdza się znakomicie. Prawda jest taka, że w przypadku Maka nie płaci się za sprzęt, a przede wszystkim za system (i proszę mi tu nie wyjeżdżać z żadnym Hackintoshem – doskonale wiemy jak to się sprawdza!).

Inną rzeczą jest też jakość wykonania komputera. Z tego co czytałem w recenzjach, są jakieś problemy z klawiaturą i można je rozwiązać podkładając pod nią gąbki, ale myślę, że sprzęt za tę kasę nie powinien mieć takich problemów. Poza tym jest też touchpad, który jest mały i uważam, że powinien być chociaż moduł z większym.
Ale też jak patrzę na te laptopy, na zdjęciach czy filmach, to nie mam poczucia, że patrzę na sprzęt klasy premium, zwłaszcza jak jest otwarty. Może to ja za dużo czasu spędzam z MacBookiem, ale mam wrażenie, że nowoczesny laptop nie powinien mieć tak okropnych ramek. Wiem, że komputer ma po prostu działać, ale moim zdaniem to trochę wpływa na Komfort pracy. Ale nawet możemy to pominąć, myślę, że argumenty, które przedstawiłem w poprzednim akapicie są wystarczająco

Moim zdaniem jest to świetny pomysł na komputer, ale zbyt drogi i nie do końca przemyślany. Albo po prostu grupa docelowa jest nieprzemyślana. Gdyby istniał wariant, który kosztowałby 5 tysięcy (cały czas mówię o wersji 16") to myślę, że znalazłaby się grupa osób, która by zainwestowała w to urządzenie, ale obawiam się, że w tym momencie w Polsce nie będzie zbyt wielu użytkowników tego sprzętu.

PS.
I brakuje mi modułu obsługującego Windows Hello

I am once again getting the urge to install EndeavorOS but I... only use it to run firefox on it.

Seriously, this is the biggest reason I stopped using Linux; I don't actually use it for anything but browsing the web since gaming just is so much more convinient on Windows and I'm not into Linux for ideological reasons (yet).

I ALSO stopped because the number of bat shit racist libertarians on Linux forums I frequented were souring the experience. But that's another matter.

@s31bz @frameworkcomputer Keeping computers in service keeps them out of landfills - yet another reason to switch to Linux! And who would say “no” to a free ThinkPad?

A #FrameworkLaptop is in my future - can’t afford it just yet, but it’s definitely the laptop I’ve decided to go with.
