Wanted to drop an update. I followed almost all of the same steps except for the Qubes RC4.2 GRUB config. Instead of your line for the grub2-mkconfig I used this:
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
sudo dracut -f
Per the Qubes documentation here to reference the updated location:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/UnifyGrubConfig
After this I rebooted. It looks like the three fixes are working from my testing:
- Suspend/resume works by hitting the framework power button, selecting suspend, hitting the button again and it resumes flawlessly. I can also now close the lid, and reopen it successfully whereas before it would never resume properly.
- The brightness keys now work, I can brighten or darken successfully.
- I noticed the power consumption and fans are not struggling as much to keep cool. It seems as though the CPU and battery are under less thermal load and generally seems to perform more efficiently already under the same workloads.
I was definitely on edge during the reboot hoping that I didn’t totally ruin my GRUB config but it is working great for these three fixes. Thanks!!!
Edit: Oh I did notice one other thing, I do not see any file corresponding to /etc/proc/, what file specifically are you catting there? I reviewed the dmesg to see that the lines were read in from the Kernel command line on boot. Not sure where else to check but the testing shows positive results for all three fixes.
