Help: Pinebook Pro will not enter sleep [Manjaro 20.04]

[feoh]

Hi. I did a bunch of hunting around and couldn't find anything like this.

To be honest, the fact that I have to full shut down and cold boot this laptop really reduces its utility.

Could you please provide a link to what you're talking about? Or to anything that will let me shut the lid and not have my battery dead when I come back in the morning?

Thanks in advance

you need trust, uboot, and idbloader. you can also use the last section of the update script to write it to you emmc.

Thanks a bunch for the reply. Much appreciated. I think I'll try the SleepMode=mem trick and see if that works, and if it doesn't I'll consider this approach. I'd want to get cozy enough with the various firmware utilities and the like that I'd be confident I could get back to a working state if something went wrong.
