The Framework Laptop 16 is my new laptop of choice that I purchased to replace my dying older machine. It is a sweet machine with phenomenal Linux support, but like all machines, it still has a set of things to know about when using Linux - this time, not really due to broken hardware/firmware, but due to things like high-dpi displays being in a beta state on the Linux desktop. Just kidding, there are some hardware issues to work around.
This might be useful for people who stumble onto this gist to debug. My laptop is configured as such, with notes on the Linux support:
- CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS
- GPU - Integrated UMA graphics (AMD Radeon 780M)
- RAM - Kingston 32 GB kit (2x16), 5600 MT/s, CL40 SODIMM memory
- SSD - WD_Black SN850x NVMe 4x4 m.2 2280 format, 2 TB
- I previously used a SK Hynix P41 Platinum, which I recommend against due to the buggy controller, constant crashes during write operatio
