FW12 cant wake screen after screen blank while in tablet mode

Running fedora 43 (gnome) on my FW12.

This is really just an inconvenience that I’ve experienced and I’m wondering if others have experienced the same or better yet have a solution. idk maybe I’m missing something obvious.

My use case is that I like to tent my FW12 so its in tablet mode next to my work laptop/monitor. I’ll play music off of it or whatever. but if I let the screen blank after the timeout, I’m not able to wake the screen easily.
my expectation is that I would be able to double tap the screen or something like how iphones work and that would wake the screen.
If I bring the stylus close that works but I don’t always have that and its inconvenient.
If I have any bluetooth/usb keyboard attached that will wake it as well. but again not always available.
Obviously the builtin keyboard is ignored in tablet mode, so thats out as well.
and the power button will suspend so that’s not what I’m looking for either. Even if it did work to wake it’s in an awkward spot.

Same here. No solution except for unfolding or pressing the power button twice.
