[RESPONDED] Waking from suspend w/ lid closed

NOTE:

This is for those wishing to change default out of the box suspend behavior. Default behavior is unchanged unless you opt to change it.

This is by no means a “fix” - this will be addressed correctly in a future BIOS release.

However, this is what I have put together and for Framework Laptop 16, based on my testing it will work reliably on Fedora and Ubuntu LTS.

Untested elsewhere. If the paths match, should be fine.

Feel free to give this a run through. I have tested it on three separate Framework Laptop 16s (UMA and dGPU installed)

Yes, there are a hundred ways to do this - if you have another approach, please use it if you want…I happened to settle on this one as it works and works reliably in my testing.

Being clear, this is tested against fresh, unfettered installs of Ubuntu LTS and Fedora, fully updated.

What to expect:

• Suspend Behavior: The laptop can still enter suspend mode when the lid is closed.
• Resume Behavior: The laptop can be brought out of suspend using the power button.
• Disabled Wakeup Events: Keyboard and touchpad presses, as well as lifting the lid, will no longer wake the system, ensuring the system only resumes through intentional user interaction (e.g., the power button).

For the time being (until later resolved in a BIOS update), this is what I am working with that has proven reliable for me:

NOTE: This may not disable the keyboard backlighting when you place it into suspend. By default without this script, the keyboard backlight goes out automatically. With this script,you will need to Fn space bar to turn off the backlight before you enter suspend or it may remain on. This is a side effect of the script.

Regarding Harry’s experience above, tried both RGB US English and US English. In both instances, Fn space bar to turn off the backlight before suspending was the way forward. Upon resuming in my multiple tests, Fn space bar to turn on the backlight after resume was working as well. More on their experience here.

Calling this one working with some altered work flow to dealing with backlighting before suspending.

Example video showing how it works. And it is working on multiple of my machines.
This is not the default, this is using the above script ONLY.
