If it is a well-known problem, it's not universal. Mine doesn't do this. I'm running openSUSE Tumbleweed.

    Same, I'm on Fedora Silverblue (which should be much more similar to Bazzite) on my Framework 12 and haven't experienced this. I regularly leave my laptop lying around off the charger for 3-4 days (will maybe wake it up for 10-15 minutes at a time every so often during) and it'll still be running.

    Wake it up? You mean turn it on? My fw13 running Bluefin (preconfigured silverblue), will be almost dead after 24 hours "sleeping".

    Now I set the battery max to 60 and leave it plugged in all the time. If I'm gonna take it somewhere I turn it off to transport.

    Sleep just doesn't work right 🤷‍♂️

    Wake it up? You mean turn it on?

    Yup, waking it from suspend.

    I checked on my machine in detail, and was surprised to find that it's using suspend-to-idle/s2idle, not even deep sleep. Deep sleep should save even more battery life, at the expense of requiring a couple extra seconds to wake from suspend (and at least on my Framework 12, requiring pressing the power button to wake rather than just opening the screen and/or pressing any keys)

    cat /sys/power/mem_sleep should show you what your machine supports, and you can e.g. echo "deep" > /sys/power/mem_sleep as root to change this. I've tested both on my Framework 12 running Silverblue 43 and they both seem to function fine, though I'll leave my machine in s2idle as I'm not in particular need of maximizing my battery life (this laptop for me is currently homebound so battery life isn't the highest priority).

    Thanks for the write up!

    mem_sleep shows only s2idle, so I suppose that's all I get. I don't know why it's so inefficient. Very annoying to forget to turn it off before I take it somewhere.

    I love my framework, but it feels like modern technology should better than older technology.

    Don't get me started on the loss of hibernate 🤦‍♂️
