I second this. My wife just got his framework laptop I convinced her to buy… no wifi, bundle didn’t install. You should update the documentation as quick as possible.
It was updated yesterday.
I too would like to know whether there is meant to be some indicator, even when the lid is shut, that the machine is sleeping. One does want that feature - even, ahem, when machines can suspend without problems - and thus it is not for nothing that various laptops have the feature. Even recent ThinkPads (to my knowledge) lazily blink their light (which, sensibly, is on the top of the lid) when they are ‘sleeping’.
EDIT: The F-13 does have - in addition to the glowing power button - a little power light on its ‘modules’ and when the machine is on the light on the connector containing the power cord is illuminated. Is that little light meant to be different when the machine is sleeping?
In the past the power button visibky blinked when on sleep. Currently mine doesn’t. Does your’s blink while shut? (You can see it from the side).
The side LEDs are for power indicators only it seems.
There is a limit to how much a button that has a lid over it can blink. But it does not seem to be blinking now, and my laptop lid is closed. However . . (sarcastic drum-roll), I am unsure that laptop is sleeping. I could test that via battery drain. Actually: come to think of it, I wrote a script that reports upon sleeps. So . . the script reports that the computer was asleep. That is good. The reason I worried was that some days ago the lid had been closed for a long-ish time and suddently the fans started going loudly. (Since then, I’ve updated the Linux firmware. There’s no guarantee that that will have fixed the problem, though.)
EDIT: but the commonest problem-to-do-with-sleep that people report on this forum is, I think, not that the thing doesn’t sleep at all, but that it wakes up at the drop of a hat.
The side LEDs are for power indicators only it seems.
Right. Thanks.
If I upgraded to W11 24H2 from W11 23H2 do I need to install this? My drivers are current but my install is not “new.”
My understanding is that Windows does not update the Firmware. Given they wrecked everyone’s duel boot UEFI the other month when they tried, this is a good thing.
It’s safe to install the firmware upgrade. It’ll either upgrade or do nothing, either of which is OK
