#framework16

5 posts5 participants1 post today

I have a #Framework16 with #Manjaro and repeatedly have a peculiar situation:
- The mouse pointer can still move
- Any media is still running (audio can be heard)
- all screens freeze, no Interaction of any kind is possible.
- Going in via SSH, I can see no obvious issues in dmesg or Journalctl.

Can ANYBODY point me to at least a way to debug this? It's mildly annoying that I have to always fear to loose work due to my laptop freezing like that.

Hey @frameworkcomputer, are the AMD Framework laptops vulnerable to the recent AMD speculative execution vulnerabilities? See: amd.com/en/resources/product-s

If the Framework 16 is impacted, do you all have a timeframe for publishing a new UEFI firmware update? This page currently shows version 3.05, which was released before this AMD security announcement: knowledgebase.frame.work/en_us

Wtf today my #Framework16 simply froze its graphics. It does so two times. The first time I can get it unstuck by changing to a TTY with Ctrl+Alt+F2 and then back, but the second time I can only reboot. Sound and Mousepointer are still working, but I can't click anything and videos are not updating any longer. WTF is going on here?

#Framework16 laptop troubles continue. Regularly getting errors from amdgpu where it has to try to reset the integrated GPU. I suspect the iGPU is going bad, which is tons of fun.

I do have a discrete GPU I’ve not tried putting in, which *might* solve the problem (heavy emphasis on might), but if not I’ll get to replace the mainboard next.

I’ve had the same issue on multiple distros, multiple kernels - so forced to look at the common denominator.

Fun times.

oh joy, another problem with my Framework 16. this time a very strange keyboard quirk.

For whatever reason, all of a sudden when I try to "ctrl+g" (or ctrl-h, or ctrl+e), the ctrl key gets released the instant I press "g" even though I'm still holding down ctrl.

it only happens with (at least) g, h, or e. other keys don't cause ctrl to incorrectly release.

it still happens when I boot to a different, live USB distro, so it's not my OS.

at first I thought maybe QMK/VIA was somehow at fault, but I can't see any reason why any of my layers would interfere in such a strange way.

no idea if this is a hardware issue or a firmware issue, but if I swap my fn and ctrl keys, the newly mapped ctrl key doesn't have this problem anymore

seems like a defective keyboard. and since framework only sells their computers with 1 year of warranty I'm sure the only option they will give me at this point is for me to pay for a new keyboard out of my own pocket.

If you are plugging a portable USB-C powered monitor into a Framework 16 laptop and the monitor keeps rebooting ... it's not getting enough power.

You have to use a USB-C module that's plugged into one of some specific sockets -- the two four "furthest back" on either side, kinda closest to where you would normally expect to power a laptop. The front two won't work.

And: "Ports 1,2,4,5 are shared on a first come first serve basis. So they are 1.5A by default, but one port from any of these can negotiate 3A over PD. Once that is taken, the other ports are limited to 1.5A. Ports 3,6 are 900mA."

There's a flyer that comes in the box about this, but I didn't make the connection (pun intended) until the symptom popped up.

And a KB article:

前幾天更新 (`pacman -Syu`) 後會讓這則系統錯誤訊息發生,同時觸控板就變成不能用了。

重開機可以解。

好像不是定時發生,而是有什麼特定手勢會讓這個狀況發生。

#archlinux
#framework16
#kde
#wayland

ok so today I will replace the liquid metal cooling of my #framework16 with a PTM7958 Thermal Pad cooling. The bad thing: the guide on how to do this has THIRTHY-NINE STEPS to install the thing on the photo
The good thing: There IS a guide and only a single tool required to perform it. Still love the concept, even though I have performance issues (which hopefully should be partially solved with this *free* upgrade)
