PopOS Shell has really become my favorite window manager on Linux, and this is what I’ve been running on my 11th gen Framework for a while now.

The usual issues apply, such as display scaling being inconsistent (no scaling + large fonts mode still seems to work best for most things, without needing Wayland enabling hacks). The only real issue I have is that the fingerprint sensor still refuses to work, even with the current steps in the guide. All I get is an “enrollment failed” error after the first tap, and it never tries again.

The fingerprint sensor works fine on my system (Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS).
However it seems to take long (about 25 seconds) to wake from sleep, after close the lid and open it again. I haven’t updated the bios yet though, it is currently in 03.07.

What is the output of your cat /sys/power/mem_sleep?

Hey, thanks a lot for the answer :smiley:

What is the output of your cat /sys/power/mem_sleep?

Right now it says:
> cat /sys/power/mem_sleep
[s2idle] deep

After the fresh install I followed the the guide on the framework page
With the recommended power settings

sudo kernelstub -a nvme.noacpi=1
sudo kernelstub -a mem_sleep_default=deep

However it took very long to wake up from sleep (about 25 seconds), this is when I wrote the issue here.
One thing I tried yesterday was to use

   94  sudo kernelstub -a mem_sleep_default=shallow
   95  sudo kernelstub -d mem_sleep_default=deep

the laptop had 75% battery when going to sleep and 49% when I woke up the next morning. However it improved the wake up time. I will edit this post with the data from this night.

Appendix
After the finishing the setup on the install page the output looked like this:

	caspar@pop-os:~$ sudo kernelstub -p 
	kernelstub.Config    : INFO     Looking for configuration...
	kernelstub           : INFO     System information:

Now it looks like this:

Place your right index finger on the fingerprint reader

You nailed it right here, it’s a bit of a trade off. Speaking for myself personally, some systems I leave on shallow as I need them to open immediately where as my portable units are all set to deep and I happily take the trade off for improved battery life.

I think there’s an issue with the latest Pop OS image. When booting past the “Install PopOS” screen, you just sit on a black screen. This is on 12th gen. Have not figured out a way around it, but disabling TPM and Secure boot do not help.

Looks like this is affecting v20 of the release. Going to try v19 and v18 which is the one referenced in the guide

Edit: okay issue is ventoy. Wiped and just made the usb purely Pop and it is working.
