Heads-up for Framework Laptop 16 owners running the NVIDIA Graphics Module on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS (currently in beta): the new HWE kernel 7.0.0-14-generic hangs on lid-close s2idle suspend whenever the nvidia-open driver is loaded — machine goes to sleep, never wakes, only a hard power-button reset recovers. My setup is a Ryzen 9 7940HS with the RTX 5070 Max-Q Graphics Module on BIOS 04.03.
The previous HWE kernel 6.17.0-22-generic suspends and resumes cleanly on the same hardware with the same driver. I tested both nvidia-driver-580-open (580.142) and nvidia-driver-595-open (595.58.03); both reproduce on 7.0 but work on 6.17, and blacklisting all nvidia kernel modules on 7.0 makes the suspend cycle complete — so the regression is inside the nvidia-open PCI suspend path interacting with kernel-PM changes between 6.17 and 7.0.
Workaround: stay on kernel 6.17 until this is fixed upstream. Default nvidia-open modprobe config works fine there.
Not Framework-specific — a Lenovo ThinkPad T1g Gen 8 owner with Intel Core Ultra + the same RTX 5070 Max-Q on Ubuntu 26.04 + kernel 7.0 reports identical symptoms, so this tracks GPU + OS + kernel rather than our platform or BIOS.

If you’re on 26.04 beta with the NVIDIA module and can add a “me too” on the Launchpad bug, that helps accelerate triage.
