Asking myself the same question, but IME Linux support for sleep states is (was?) generally horrible due to absolute lack of standard enforcement, and that's with laptops where it's a priority. I've only had one laptop (my most recent one) work 100% with sleep states, and only after replacing the NVMe that froze roughly 33% of the wake ups due to some obscure bug (but worked fine otherwise)


Maybe lucky, but haven’t had trouble with Linux and sleep for about 15 years. Dell and Framework.


I have a Dell latitude and dell precision laptops. Both have awful support for sleep. The latitude I had to use an LTS kernel to make it work 90% of the time, the other 10% it just wakes up randomly after closing the lid. The precision will wake itself up instantly after putting it into sleep due to a bug with the dedicated NVIDEA GPU


I bought the “developer” edition, that may have helped.
