Ubuntu 21.04 on the Framework Laptop

Currently running Ubuntu 21.04 (5.11 kernel) on my i5-1135G7 Framework.

No wifi issues that I’ve noticed with the AX210 non-VPro card. Haven’t used Bluetooth.

I found that the battery drained from 100% to ~64% after 9.5 hours of sleep though (~3.8%/hr). As noted in this thread, the OS is defaulting to S2Idle when it sleeps.

So I added the following line to the /etc/default/grub file to enable deep sleep:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“mem_sleep_default=deep”

Edit: see better written instructions below

After doing this, it dropped from 100% to 95% after 2.5 hours of sleep (~2%/hr). That still seems a bit high to me, any suggestions?
