I recently received my Librem 15 v3 and have been trying to use it exclusively as a home browser and development workstation.
One annoyance I’ve had with it is that occasionally it gets into a mode where it will repeatedly suspend to RAM unexpectedly. The screen will just go blank, the wifi light go out, and then the system power state light change to indicate it’s suspended. I have to push the power button, unlock the screen, and continue. When it’s bad, I get maybe 15 seconds of use between suspends. I’ve tried power cycling, just in case it’s some kind of bad state in Wayland or Gnome, but then it just suspends at the login screen again.
It’s pretty weird, but I was wondering if anyone has debugged this sort of thing before.
The best I have is in /var/log/messages:

Shortly after these messages, the system sleeps and I have to wake it up again.
And here, later:

The line in common seems to be the EDID reading. Anyone see this before? It presents as a flakey hardware thing but I’m thinking it might be a Wayland bug setting off a gnome shell bug.
