Also, I recommend to read this #FreeBSD wiki article about suspend setup:

wiki.freebsd.org/SuspendResume

And look to the linked lists about tested laptops.

In my experience, the suspend/resume much more depends on the software in the your BIOS chip. E.g. #Thinkpad X220 with proprietary BIOS resumes instantly (tested on FreeBSD 10/11). And X220 with #coreboot / #libreboot needs near 10 seconds to wake up (FreeBSD 14.2/14.3)

wiki.freebsd.orgMaking sure you're not a bot!

We had a great experience at #DebConf25!

We brought our two laptop models and our brand new NUC Box with Dasharo coreboot firmware.

It was great to see how much recognition and interest there was. Between the tech talks and hallway chats, we really enjoyed the spirit of the Debian community.

🙏 Thanks to everyone who visited our stand!
📅 Any recommendations for other FOSS conferences we should join?

If you are looking for a European alternative to Framework, you should visit NovaCustom!

They offer #privacy #customisation #freedom laptops and in the near futur also a SBC all running on #Dasharo #coreboot and #heads firmware with #linux distrubitions like #qubesos #ubuntu #linuxmint #zorinos #pop_os #Fedora and more..

They joined the Right to repair movement and as of late the Fedora Ready Program, they have several payment options.

@wolf480pl @cas I just assume they don't want to have to deal with a gazillion of undocumented SBCs that may only get 1 person to once push code that gets accepted, but then "orphaned" and break over time as they may not be willing to build & test every new kernel before release just to enshure it ain't broken!

It's absolute chaos and one of the reasons I didn't even try to build @OS1337 for the #Pi0W as of today...

Infosec.SpaceKevin Karhan :verified: (@kkarhan@infosec.space)@cas@treehouse.systems @wolf480pl@mstdn.io granted, the distain is mutual, given almost all #SBC & #SoC vendors refuse to do basic #documentation on how their shit works and barely release some dodgy images with custom kernel modules. - @olimex@mastodon.social and #RaspberryPi being an exception of the norm, but #Rockchip, #Allwinner and other SOCs are a real pain in the ass to support unless they are #ARMv8 with #UEFI to boot. #Apple's Hardware does have @AsahiLinux@treehouse.systems as project to care for *and* is popular enough to be *worth the hassle* for them, as it brings decent performance and battery runtime to the table...
