Re: Serious problem with SATA LPM in F28 on Lenovo 50 series laptops

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I managed to install F28 (fresh install of KDE spin) on the second disc
of my T450s. I cannot reproduce the issue by changing screen brightness
there with min_power and also the med_power_with_dipm default. I tried
it with battery only as well as with connected power supply. Now I'll
see whether I get that rare random freeze.

In attachment you find the information for my T450s and the installed disks.

Greetings,
Christian
