What about 6.1 kernel (kernel-latest package)? Suspend does work on MK V.
What’s the exact behavior? Does it go to sleep (but has issues on resume), or doesn’t go to sleep at all?
Thank you, wish I had known that an hour ago but got there in the end.
Yes, with 6.1 suspend works. The problem was the waking up again after but that’s now fixed.
@marmarek after a re-install I find that kernel-latest messes up the graphics. Not sure why it worked before. Kernel 5.15 doesn’t have that issue but then suspend doesn’t work so it would be nice to have the latest kernel. Any ideas?
Thank you.
I have been able to test microphone and webcam now (both fine) and have had no problems with either wifi or ethernet. There is a lot of fan noise, which Star Labs have promised to try and fix via a firmware update soon.
This was done from a Linux Mint environment though, planning to get Qubes OS on this laptop in the near future. So @sheepskin will most likely have to verify using the same command within dom0 to see if it is accessible within Qubes OS. If he can get the same or similar results, might I suggest reflecting this in the HCL?
Could you advise on how to update to Kernel 6.1? All I’ve found online was how to do it on Debian-based distros. The issue I’m facing is suspend not booting back up. HDMI also is not working and I assume this is an igfx problem. Would I fix this by upgrading to Kernel 6.1? I’m on the Starbook MK VI. Thanks.
I’d like to suggest a revision to the “Remark” section for the Star Labs Starbook MK VI. It should be noted that without upgrading to kernel 6.1, the user cannot adjust screen brightness, connect an external monitor via HDMI, or use the suspend/sleep feature (it doesn’t boot back up without full restart). This will save users a lot of time in wondering why the brightness setting doesn’t work, which in my opinion every user will (the full brightness is ridiculously bright)
For anyone looking to use an external monitor via HDMI, adjust screen brightness, and use the sleep feature, upgrade to kernel 6.1+ using:
